According to reports, Eden Hazard is unlikely to feature for Chelsea against Tottenham at Wembley on Sunday
Reports from the Evening Standard state that Conte has no desire to rush Eden back to action too soon.
Hazard’s comeback date was supposed to be around late August, so the attacking star remains on target to return later this month.
Chelsea fans will be desperate to see Hazard back in action for them in the coming weeks after the Blues slumped to a shock 3-2 loss to Burnley at Stamford Bridge on Saturday in their Premier League opener.
Hazard was one of Chelsea’s key players as they won the Premier League in Antonio Conte’s first season at the club last term.
