Only recently the Spanish giants made first contact with the Chelsea winger, who is thinking of a move away from Stamford Bridge, according to Sport.
Barcelona have made two signings so far – Brazilian midfielder Arthur from Gremio and defender Clement Lenglet from Sevilla. However, Ernesto Valverde is looking to strengthen his attack and after Antoine Griezmann snubbed the chance to play alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez – Hazard is being seen as an alternative.
The 27-year-old though is still involved in the World Cup and will feature for Belgium in the third-place clash against England on Saturday.
A danger to Barca’s chances of bringing the Belgian to Camp Nou looms in the form of rivals Real Madrid.
After Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit to Juventus, Los Blancos are keen to bring either Neymar or Kylian Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu.
If neither of them can be signed, Florentino Perez’s attention will likely switch to Hazard and see the two giants go head-to-head to sign him.
