Eden Hazard hopes to get a full preseason under his belt at Chelsea.

Hazard feels a strong pre-season could be vital for the Blues' fortunes.

He said: "The first thing to do in the summer is to relax on holiday and let our bodies recover from the long season.

"Then when we come back we have some big trips and it will be important to train well ahead.

"If we can have a good pre-season we will go into the competitive games with confidence."
