Chelsea boss Sarri dismisses Alonso Madrid rumours: But I need more

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri says there's more to come from Marcos Alonso.

Today, Sarri dismissed talk of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid coming in for the fullback today.

And he says Alonso can improve defensively despite his strong start to the season.

He said: “He has played very well in three matches. He is a very good player but can improve in the defensive phase.

“I am not worried. He has physical qualities at the top level, but he can do more defensively. He is very good offensively, but I think he can do more."
