Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has hailed the arrival of Pedro from Barcelona.

The Spaniard will help Eden Hazard's game, says Courtois.

Courtois told the London Evening Standard: “Pedro's arrival is good for Eden.

“Whenever Eden got the ball before, you knew that two or three players would go with him to try to stop him. The defenders were always close to him.

“Of course, we have other players with quality but opponents would cover Eden most of all.

“Now we have Pedro, the defenders can't just stay with Eden because they will know the other side is free for him to exploit, as well as for players like Willian and our top strikers, too."
