Antonio Conte has confirmed Eden Hazard will be starting in Chelsea’s EFL Cup tie against Nottingham Forest
The Belgium playmaker suffered a broken ankle in June and has made three substitute appearances for the Blues in the last 10 days.
Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte said: “For Eden now is the right moment to start the game and to try to play the whole game.”
Hazard recently said Conte improved him within a week of his appointment in a comment which many interpreted as a slight on Jose Mourinho, rather than praise for Chelsea’s Italian boss.
“He can continue to improve a lot in his career and to become one of the best,” Conte said.
