Belgium coach wants Chelsea's Eden Hazard to move to — Football Transfer News

The first mumblings a few weeks ago that Eden Hazard might leave Chelsea for Real Madrid appeared fanciful.

One can only speculate as to what Hazard and Abramovich discussed in private, but Hazard ultimately signed with the Blues and was one of the most dominant midfielders in the Premier League for three straight seasons.

So it may come as a shock - or not - to find that Man United were similarly hijacked in a bid for Eden Hazard back in 2012. "I expect more of him".

According to reports in France, Hazard is interested in a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid, with his former Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez now in charge at The Bernabeu.

"I've got no sympathy for Hazard".

"I don't know what's going on with the owner and what the circumstances are, but to me at times it looks like he's begging for the sack".

"The thing that worries me about Chelsea is that he seems to be falling out with all the players". After being adjudged Player of the Year last season, Hazard has looked jaded and exhausted this time around for both club and country. "But you don't bring him on in the 89th minute to humiliate him and embarrass him even further".

"I didn't have a good relationship with the coach", Markovic told Portuguese newspaper A Bola. "That was a problem". But at least they weren't fuelled by the most innocuous actions of footballers on the internet.

However, Hazard was in the starting eleven for Chelsea's 0-0 Champions League draw against Dynamo Kyiv in midweek. But while rules and regulations preclude the striker from joining another Premier League club until the transfer window opens, Galatasaray have revealed they've been offered the 31-year-old and are "thinking about it".

It's for that reason academy product Ruben Loftus-Cheek was afforded a rare start against Villa, one unburdened by a sense of entitlement and still very much fighting for prominence at Stamford Bridge.
