<\/p>\nSarri said he was delighted to see N\u2019Golo put pen to paper on a new deal.<\/p>\n
The France international has been a key player for Chelsea since moving to Stamford Bridge from Leicester City.<\/p>\n
The player had been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain, but rejected the move in favour of signing a mega money deal to remain at Chelsea for the next five years.<\/p>\n
Sarri said the player\u2019s committal to the club was \u201cimportant news\u201d for everybody associated with the club.<\/p>\n
\u201cN\u2019golo for us is not just an important player, he\u2019s a determinant players for us,\u201d Sarri told a press conference at Chelsea\u2019s cobham training ground ahead of their clash with Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really happy with the new contract, really pleased for him \u2013 it\u2019s very important news I think.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know that David [Luiz] said something about him \u2013 he doesn\u2019t want to pay the bill in the restaurant. So he has a flaw like everybody, but he\u2019s very professional on the pitch and out of the pitch.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s very important for us in the defensive phase but he\u2019s improving in the offensive movements. He has to improve in the last 20\/25 metres, he can score more goals.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
