Real Madrid given major hope of beating Manchester United to £88m transfer after message from Chelsea star

Posted by

Eden Hazard has reportedly informed Real Madrid he’ll only leave Chelsea to seal a transfer to the Bernabeu amid recent stories linking him as a target for Manchester United.

The Belgium international is one of the best players in the world on his day and not one Chelsea would want to lose, though especially not to a Premier League title rival.

The Sun recently linked Hazard as a £90million target for United, but Chelsea fans shouldn’t be too worried as it seems there’s only one club he’d leave Stamford Bridge for.

According to Diario Gol, Hazard, who they say could be available for closer to £88m, has told Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane that he’d only move to play for his side.

The report states that this could make the 26-year-old one of their top targets for next summer as they look to majorly revamp their struggling attack.

Cristiano Ronaldo looks past his best this season, while Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale are also not firing so far.

Hazard could certainly be an upgrade as he remains at the peak of his powers and looks ideal for Madrid’s stylish and expansive playing style.
