Chelsea midfielder Jorginho says teammate Eden Hazard has the potential to become the best player in the world.

The Belgian forward has thrived for the Blues this season after being deployed in a false nine position by new Blues boss Maurizio Sarri.

The 27-year-old has moved ahead of strikers Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud in the pecking order and has responded with 12 goals and a further nine assists.

Jorginho believes Chelsea is still the best place for Hazard and insists he doesn’t have to leave in order to fulfil his career ambitions.

"With the potential he has, if he wants, he can be the best in the world," he told Sky Sports.

"In the new role he's playing, he can score more goals in the position he has and he has the potential to do so."
