Having triumphantly finished the World Cup, Eden Hazard hinted at his future plans - the Belgian's words did not delight the fans of London's "Chelsea."
The 27-year-old winger helped his country's national team secure victory against England in the battle for bronze. E. Hazard will now have time to rest from football, but he may no longer wear the "Chelsea" jersey.
There is much talk that after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, "Real" will seek to attract the Belgian, who is a much more realistic candidate than Neymar or Kylian Mbappe.
After the match with England, the footballer said: "After six great years at Chelsea, maybe it's time to try something new, and now right after the World Cup."
"Of course, I can decide what I want to do next - stay or leave, but the final word will be with Chelsea. You all know that club I want to be with," the Belgian hinted indirectly about Real.
It is hard to expect that Chelsea will easily say goodbye to their leader, but E. Hazard's attitude is already clear - if he is given permission to leave, he will do so.
E. Hazard may not be the only player to move from Chelsea to Real - it is said that Thibaut Courtois and the Spanish club have already reached an agreement, and the deal will be completed next week. It is estimated that the goalkeeper for the "Blues" will cost up to 40 million euros.
