Maurizio Sarri attended the media after the final of the Europa League. The Italian coach revealed, after winning the Europa League final, that Hazard wants to change his looks this summer. The Italian took the opportunity to praise the Belgian winger.

 

How does a coach feel after winning a title like this?

I'm very, very happy. This trophy is very important for the club. We feel that we deserved it. We went through many difficulties in January and February but we reacted and it is not easy to react in the Premier League. In the end, we qualified for the Champions League, we won twelve matches in the Europa League, we reached the final. We have deserved. Since the 6-0 defeat against City, we have changed.

 

His team took a while to find his rhythm ...

The first part was difficult. The 64th game of the season, it was very hot. It was a physically very difficult game to play. I think we were playing to keep the result. I asked the players to play with courage, even if defeat was a risk. And in the second half we played good football against a dangerous team like Arsenal.

 

What can you say about Hazard?

He is an incredible, wonderful player. I took about two or three months to understand him as a person and now I understand him, he is a wonderful man. I know he wants to go out and I understand his decision.

 

And what can you say about your future in the club?

I have to talk to the club and be sure of what I can do for Chelsea and what Chelsea can do for me. I love the Premier and I'm lucky to be at Chelsea, but at the end of each season you have to sit down and talk. In my opinion, I deserve to continue at Chelsea. But my opinion is not enough.
