  • Eden Hazard.

    Former Belgium international Emile Mpenza believes compatriot Eden Hazard needs to leave Chelsea to “become stronger”.

    Hazard has been linked with a move to Real Madrid for the last two years, and has made no secret of his desire to join the La Liga outfit, having previously called that a dream move.

    With Chelsea floundering after a hot start this season and the 28-year-old’s contract coming to an end in 2020, the prospect of an exit this summer has always loomed large.

    And Mpenza, the ex-Manchester City striker, believes it is time for Hazard to move on.

    “I think he wrote a page in Chelsea’s history book and now he has to try to go somewhere else,” Mpenza told Omnisport.

    “A player always wants to move to another team to improve. Real Madrid won three Champions Leagues [in a row], and Hazard hasn’t won it with Chelsea.

    “If he wants to improve, he can go to Madrid to become stronger.”
