Cesc Fabregas encouraged by Maurizio Sarri appointment at Chelsea

Midfielder Cesc Fabregas suggests that he has been left encouraged by Chelsea's appointment of new head coach Maurizio Sarri.

Midfielder Cesc Fabregas has said that he 'believes' in the type of football that Maurizio Sarri will look to try to play at Chelsea.

Sarri has just replaced Antonio Conte as the club's head coach, and it is expected to lead to the Blues switching from a 3-4-3 formation to a 4-3-3.

That could potentially result in Fabregas being given more licence to get forward in the middle of the pitch, and the Spaniard has suggested that he is excited to be involved in Sarri's new setup.

At a press conference, the 31-year-old told reporters: "His way of football, I believe in. I really like it, I grew up in this system, in this quality of football, that he wants to bring to the football club.

"I think the type of player like myself, we can take a lot of advantage. We just have to train very hard, be united, be a team."

Chelsea have just arrived in Australia ahead of Monday's pre-season friendly with Perth Glory.
