Sarri: Kepa is not better than Courtois, Hazard is happy in Chelsea!

The Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri said his squad had finished and he had been pleased with the players. Shortly before closing the transfer window, Londoners split with Thibault Courtois, who moved to Real Madrid. His replacement was attracted by Kepa Arrizabalaga from Athletic Bilbao for the record-breaking goalie of 80 million euros.

'I`m happy for both goalkeepers. The situation of Courtois was clear. He wanted to go to Madrid and we lost one of the most important goalkeepers in the world, but we now have one of the best young goalkeeper in Europe. At this point, Kepa is no better than Courtois. He is very young. I hope it can develop very quickly. I`m very happy that we took Kovacic. I think our stock is now complete!', Sarri said. The Italian will make his debut in the Premiership tomorrow when Chelsea hosts Huddersfield.

The former mentor of Napoli commented that there were no problems with Eden Hazard, whose future was unclear until recently. 'Hazard is with us. I`ve been talking to him three, four times on any topic. He did not mention the transfer market. He is very happy here. I think it`s impossible to sell it because the market is closed here and we cannot change important players!', Sarri said.
