Eden Hazard has said he is "99 percent" certain to stay at Chelsea next season, saying: "I want to finish well at the club."
After winning a host of individual awards as Chelsea won the Premier League title and League Cup in 2014-15, Hazard has endured a highly disappointing season, failing to produce his best form until the final weeks of the campaign as the club ended the campaign without silverware.
The 25-year-old Belgium international has been linked with an exit numerous times in the past, with Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid his most prominent suitors, but a source told ESPN FC last month that Hazard had told incoming boss Antonio Conte he plans to stay and he told a news conference on Friday that there is little prospect of an exit.
"If I tell you I'm staying at Chelsea with 100 percent certainty, this is not the case," he said. "For now, I'm 100 percent sure I'll compete at the Euros. After, I will think of Chelsea, but I want to finish well at the club."
Fellow Belgium international Thibaut Courtois recently said he expects to stay at Stamford Bridge, and Hazard added: "Like Thibaut, I will be at Chelsea 99 percent next season.
"We all know my season. I will not repeat, it was bad, but now it's over and I'm focusing for the Euro.
"The last game where I gave everything was against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. After that I was injured. And this is where the season has just ended for Chelsea. So I took my time to get back to fitness. I will attack the challenge of the European Championship in full possession of my faculties."

Belgium's Eden Hazard claims his side are not amongst the favourites for Euro 2016 despite the Belgians being ranked number one in the world.

In an interview with Sky Sports News, Hazard emphasised that he is not seeking to leave Stamford Bridge.
"I'm happy," he said. "I'm always happy. I have spoken to Antonio Conte. He said good luck at the Euros and we will see after the Championships."
Hazard has been linked with a reunion with Jose Mourinho at Manchester United, despite rumours of a fall-out between the pair, but the former Lille star suggested that is not in his plans.
"Mourinho is a fantastic manager," he said. "I wish him good luck for the next season. I can't wait and just want to play against Manchester United. He's a good manager with a lot of experience. He's at a big club now and he will just want to win games."
