Eden Hazard says he would understand if keeper Petr Cech decided to leave Chelsea in the summer.
Cech has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, with Premier League duo Arsenal and Liverpool both reportedly interested in the experienced keeper
The 32-year-old is under the contract at the west London club until 2016, but the Czech international is ready to walk away rather than spending another 12 months as Courtois' understudy.
Hazard told Sky Sports News: "Thibaut and Petr are both very good, and when you are on the bench of course you want to play.
"He knows he has the quality to play at a good club, and of course if I'm a good player and I'm on the bench I want to leave - this is football."
