Hazard rebuffs Dzeko? 'Chelsea don't need more attackers'

Eden Hazard doesn’t believe that Chelsea should sign more strikers.

With the Pensioners in talks with Edin Dzeko, it looks like the Blues are going to add another attacker. Diego Costa left in the summer and Michy Batshuayi doesn’t seem to be in Antonio Conte’s good books, and is lined up with a move to Borussia.

​Speaking after Chelsea’s 4-0 win on the road to Brighton, the Belgian international said:
"I think we have two very good strikers in Alvaro and Michy. If they are not ready to play I can play striker, so I don't think we need [another one].

"Football is simple - keep the ball on the ground and try [to play] like we did. Because we are missing chances people are saying we need another striker, but if we are scoring goals, we are the best attack in the League and no-one can say we need a striker.
"It depends on the form of the team and I think we're happy with the team we have."
