Eden Hazard has told Antonio Conte he’s back to full fitness again ahead of Chelsea’s encounter with Roma in the Champions League.

The forward missed the beginning of Chelsea’s campaign after sustaining an ankle injury while on international duty with Belgium in the summer but has started the Blues’ last four matches in the Premier League.

Hazard scored the only goal of the game in the side’s 1-0 victory at Bournemouth on Saturday and has stressed he’s desperate to get more minutes under his belt in midweek.

In the lead-up to Tuesday’s trip to Roma, Hazard told Chelsea TV: ‘Yeah for sure [back to full fitness], definitely. I’m training hard, the injury is the past.

‘I’m fully ready for the next game, I just want to play.

‘A big week is coming, so it was important also for the confidence to stay high, after the game against Watford, to win at Bournemouth.

‘We are full of confidence now, two big games in Champions League and Premier League. And we are ready to play both.’
