LONDON: Antonio Conte wants both Belgian star duo playmaker Eden Hazard and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois to remain with champions Chelsea despite speculation they would like to move to Spain. “This is a private conversation – between the club and the player, and the agent of the player,” said Conte. “Courtois has a contract, also for next season, with the club,” said Conte. “We are talking about a fantastic goalkeeper, a really good guy, and I’m happy to work with him. “It’s very important to try to improve your team, to strengthen your team, and not to sell the best players.”--AFP
