    Maurizio Sarri will wait until Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard are back from their holidays before holding talks with the Belgian pair about their Chelsea futures. Nike Youth Clay Matthews Elite Green/Gold Jersey - Green Bay Packers NFL #52 FadeawayReal Madrid are understood to be in talks with Chelsea over a possible £35m deal for Courtois and have also targeted Hazard after selling Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus. Yet Sarri insisted he would not speak to either player on the phone, after finally replacing Antonio Conte as the London club’s manager, even though they are due to return to training only shortly before the English transfer window closes on 9 Ryan Jensen Jersey August. “Clearly the players you are referring to are very high-level players and I would like to keep them,” Sarri said during his unveiling at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday. “But a telephone call without looking them in the eye will not give me any certainty. “I would like to meet these players face to face and talk to them and understand what the best thing is for everyone to do. Before that I would also like a player to come on the pitch for four or five days with me Sam Hubbard Jersey to have a clear idea of what the plan is.” However, Sarri’s relaxed tone did not extinguish the uncertainty hanging over Chelsea. Hazard has suggested it could be time for him to seek a new challenge after helping Belgium finish third Womens Matt Schaub Jersey at the World Cup and Madrid have until Spain’s transfer window shuts on 31 August to pursue players from English clubs. Chelsea do not want to sell Courtois without having a new goalkeeper in place, even though the 26-year-old is in the final year of his contract, and have lost out to Liverpool in the race to sign Roma’s Alisson. Hazard’s future is more in the balance as he has two years left on his contract and the club believe they can convince him to stay with a lucrative new contract offer. “He is one of the top two or three European players,” Sarri said of Hazard. “I hope that I will manage to improve him but this is very difficult given he has reached a very high level.” Sarri, who said he was heartbroken when his three-year association with Napoli finished at the end of last season, http://www.texasrangersprostore.com/WOMENS-ROUGNED-ODOR-JERSEY.html admitted his preparations for the new season had been complicated by how long he has had to wait to replace Conte. Negotiations to release the 59-year-old from his Napoli contract were tricky, even though he had been replaced at the San Paolo by Carlo Ancelotti. Sarri, who is friends with Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola, has built a reputation as one of the most exciting coaches in Europe. Napoli pushed Juventus hard in the Serie A title race last season and, although Sarri does not have any trophies on his CV, his comments that a coach’s duty is to improve the players at his disposal are likely to sit well with the Chelsea hierarchy. Speaking via a translator, he promised entertaining football and explained that his main objective was to have fun. Conte complained he did not receive enough backing in the transfer market after winning the Premier League in his first year in England. Sarri, by contrast, said transfer talk bores him. However, he accepted his task was to revive Chelsea after their failure to qualify for the Champions League and insisted he was not worried about Roman Abramovich’s history of firing managers who fall below expectations. Sarri, who confirmed Gianfranco Zola will be his assistant, has denied he holds homophobic or sexist views. He was given a two-game ban and a €20,000 fine after calling Roberto Mancini a “faggot” during an Italian Cup http://www.seahawksofficialsproshop.com/Shaquill-Griffin-Jersey quarter-final against Internazionale last season and was criticised for making an offensive comment towards a female journalist, Titti Improta, after a game in March. “People make mistakes,” Sarri said. “One of these mistakes was made when I was angry. Another was not even a mistake, it was a journalist with whom I shared jokes for three years. It was misconstrued. These were mistakes, that is for sure. I think those who know me well cannot define me in this way, neither homophobic, nor sexist or racist. cheap jerseys from chinacheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys wholesale nfl jerseys cheap jerseys china
