Belgian star Eden Hazard is reportedly all set for a move to Real Madrid and will depart Chelsea with praise ringing in his ears after the 4-1 trouncing of Arsenal in the Europa League final.
Chelsea have rejected Real Madrid's opening offer for talisman Eden Hazard. I know that well because in 2007 I had a long negotiation with Peter Kenyon and Roman Abramovich about [Arjen] Robben.
The Daily Telegraph is reporting that the Spanish giants are eager to land the Belgium worldwide in the current transfer window. My target today was to win the trophy that's it. "I love the Premier League, so I am happy". I said it two weeks ago.
"I tried to reduce it many times and we waited until the last minute but finally we paid it". "You will see, you will know in a couple of days".
"I think now it's a matter of money".
"I think it is a goodbye, but in football you never know".
Certain reports suggest he has handed in a transfer request to the Catalans, with Mundo Deportivo claiming Manchester United and Chelsea have made "weighty proposals" to lure him back to the Premier League.
Ramos, who had been linked with a move to China, fronted a news conference on Thursday to reaffirm his own commitment to Zinedine Zidane's side and fielded questions about Hazard's potential arrival.
Maurizio Sarri praised Hazard's personality after the final and revealed he had been expecting Hazard to leave Chelsea for some time.
"But with the added complication of a transfer ban, if he goes then you look at Chelsea and wonder who is going to make the team alive on the pitch". But when you are able to understand him as a man, he's a wonderful man.
"I have to speak to my club tomorrow", he admitted.
The Europa League final between Chelsea and Arsenal is expected to be Eden Hazard's last appearance for Chelsea, GMS reported.
