Kovacic says Eden Hazard is Chelsea's best player and any decision made on
his future should be respected.
Hazard's contract at Chelsea finishes at the end of next season and the
forward has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid.
The Belgian has 16 goals and 15 assists in the Premier League for Chelsea
this season and has two Premier League titles to his name since joining
Chelsea in 2012.
Kovacic, on loan from Real Madrid this season, says Hazard will be an
important player at any team he played for.
"Eden is a great guy, an amazing player, for every club he would be
important," he said.
"For Chelsea he is the most important player but in the end it's his
decision so everybody should respect his decision.
"It's on him now. He's had amazing years at Chelsea.
"This year was also great, let's see what he will do."
