Chelsea have received an injury boost as Eden Hazard has returned to light training ahead of the new Premier League season reports The Mirror Sport.
The Belgian posted a clip on his Instagram going through his paces at Cobham as he steps up his recovery before the Blues bid to defend their title.
Hazard has had to undergo treatment on his ankle but his return to the training pitch will boost hopes he is approaching full fitness.
The 26-year-old has been linked with a big-money switch to Real Madrid but is committed to the Stamford Bridge outfit and determined to win more silverware.
While he faces missing the start of the season, he will likely be fit to play by the end of August, and he is determined to help Chelsea retain their title.
He said: “Hopefully, next year it is the same — we win the league and then I win Player of the Year.
"Obviously winning the league is what we want most and the award is just a bonus.
“We started this season well and we won the league, but next year we have to work as hard as we have this season.
We have to be ready every year at the same level to stay at the top.
“I’ve been here for five years now and I’m so happy.
“After five years, I know everything about the club. Even if I’m still only 26, I have a lot of experience now.
“I started playing at 16 in France, so I’ve been professional for 10 years. In terms of games and experience, I’m one of the oldest ones.
"I like this club because it’s like a family. I have a lot of friends and we all talk to each other.”
