Eden Hazard said he will follow team-mate Thibaut Courtois in signing a new Chelsea contract.
Hazard has been linked with Spanish and European champions Real Madrid.
There were suggestions over Hazard's future at Chelsea after his father claimed the 27-year-old Belgium star rejected the chance to extend his contract in order to wait for a possible offer from Madrid.
While Chelsea goalkeeper, Courtois, 25, has also emerged as a target for Zinedine Zidane's men.
Hazard is under contract until 2020 – seemingly moved to reassure fans at the O2 Arena, which played host to the Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics in NBA action on Thursday.
Reportedly asked whether he will sign a new deal with Chelsea, Hazard is said to have told the Mirror: "Yes.
"I think Thibaut first. Then I will sign."
Hazard has scored six goals and two assists for Chelsea in the Premier League this season.
