Sarri, 60, wants assurances over his future from club hierarchy at Stamford Bridge

“It’s very exciting to be here but now it’s time to think only about the final.”When asked directly if he was happy to remain at Chelsea, he replied: “I’m very happy to stay in the Premier League, with Chelsea, one of the most important clubs in the Premier League.“I’m very, very happy but we have to discuss the situation. It’s normal. You have to discuss things with the club. It’s like this.”Elsewhere, Sarri refused to shed any light on whether the final with Arsenal in Baku on May 29 would be Eden Hazard’s last game for Chelsea. Hazard has been heavily linked with a summer move to Real Madrid, and Sarri replied: “I don’t know. I want to respect his decision.“I hope he will stay with us but we need to be ready if he decides something different. I have spoken with him but I don’t want to say anything.”Sarri also declined to comment on suggestions Gunners goalkeeper Petr Cech would be returning to the club as sporting director.
