Eden Hazard can win Ballon d'Or at Chelsea, insists Maurizio Sarri, as fan pays £7k for banner urging him to stay

                                    Eden Hazard is Chelsea's most valuable player - Chelsea FC


Maurizio Sarri has cranked up the Chelsea charm offensive aimed at keeping Eden Hazard at the club by insisting the Belgian can win everything by staying at Stamford Bridge.

And one Chelsea supporter has played his part by paying £7,000 to try to help the club convince Hazard to sign a new contract.

The fan, who wants to remain anonymous, has personally funded a 100x50ft banner, which reads ‘Eden Hazard we want you to stay’ and will be displayed during Saturday’s lunchtime kick-off against Manchester United.

Chelsea fanzine cfcuk was approached by the fan, who supplied the image of Hazard’s knee-slide celebration and the wording he wanted to be used, to organise the making of the banner that will be displayed in the Lower Matthew Harding Stand.

Hazard is waiting to see whether or not Real Madrid promise to make a big push to sign him next summer, before deciding whether or not to re-sign with Chelsea. He last week claimed that a move to Spain may help his chances of winning the Ballon d’Or, despite going into the United game on the back of eight goals in his last eight Blues appearances.

But head coach Sarri said: “It will be important for us if he remains with us. Very, very important. But I think also that he can win everything, possibly a Ballon d’Or, here. Without playing in Spain. Because, for example, Chelsea will be able to win the Champions League. Belgium could win the European Championship. He could win everything, without playing in Spain.”

Asked whether he had personally told Hazard, who has 18 months remaining on his deal, that he could win the Ballon d’Or at Chelsea, Sarri replied: “Not at the moment, because I have seen him for the first time in the last two weeks only yesterday. But I want to tell it to him very soon.”

Another player Chelsea may face a battle to keep is Andreas Christensen, who will ask to leave Chelsea if he is not playing by Christmas, according to the central defender’s father and agent Sten.

Danish international Christensen has only played three times for Chelsea this season and is yet to make a single appearance in the Premier League.

In an interview with Danish television, Christensen’s father and agent Sten said: “If his situation doesn’t change around Christmas, we’ll obviously schedule a chat with Chelsea and say, ‘okay, what can we do for Andreas? Can we move him?

UNSATISFIED Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Sarcastically Responds To 87-Rated FIFA 21 Card As Arsenal Talisman Receives Same Rating As Last Year

It’s safe to say Pierre-Emerick Aubemayang isn’t very happy about his FIFA 21 rating. The Gunners’ talisman has been handed an 87 rating for the new edition of the game – the same rating he was in FIFA 19. And the Gabon international has sarcastically responded to his card with a laughing face emoji. Aubameyang had another superb season for the Gunners, hitting 22 Premier League goals for Mikel Arteta’s side – the same he managed last year. However, the 31-year-old played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s FA Cup triumph, netting a brace against Chelsea to seal a first trophy in management for Arteta. Meanwhile, it is understood Aubameyang will ‘imminently’ sign a new three-year contract at the Emirates. It is understood he will become the club’s highest earner on his new deal, surpassing Mesut Ozil’s reported £350,000-a-week wages. The report adds Arteta has been integral in talks to keep the 31-year-old striker in north London. Former Arsenal head of football Raul Sanllehi is believed to ha...

'I Cried A Lot' - Arsenal Star Martinelli Opens Up On Knee Injury That 'Broke' Him

 The 19-year-old attacker has said that manager Mikel Arteta was a great support as he was returning to fitness. Arsenal attacker Gabriel Martinelli has admitted that the horror knee injury he suffered in June caused him a huge amount of pain both physically and emotionally. The young wide player sustained the issue during training, and though it did not feel like anything at first, it required surgery. After missing several months with the injury, Martinelli is now only finding his way back into competitive football. I was about to receive the ball and felt a little pain on my knee,” he told the Daily Mail. "Not enough for me to stop practising, but, while we were on the finishing session, I told them that I was in pain. They told me to rest and, if I felt the pain the next day, to let them know. “When I woke up, I felt it but I was able to walk. I thought it was nothing at first, but it was a pain I'd never felt before. I went to the club for the examinations and they said i...
