Chelsea transfer news.
The Blues have had an offer on the table for Hazard for over three months and he and his agent have been going over the small print.
Hazard has been strongly linked with reigning Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain in some time, with manager Laurent Blanc even speaking publicly of his admiration for the Belgium international.
The player himself has never hinted that he wants to leave Stamford Bridge and has been performing brilliantly on the pitch this season.
However, this new deal will simply affirm that Hazard will not be departing West London any time soon and this will be music to the ears of the fans and hierarchy at the club.
Under the guidance of Jose Mourinho this term the side are on course for an historic quadruple – although the manager has been quick to play down this talk.
The West Londoners currently top the Premier League, are through to the semi-finals of the Capital One Cup and also the Last-16 of the Champions League – where they will face Hazard’s admirers PSG.
