After Chelsea and Arsenal contest the Europa League final in Baku, Eden Hazard could bid farewell to the Blues ahead of a summer move to Real Madrid, according to Jose Mourinho.
The Portuguese, who had two spells as Chelsea manager, reflected on the future of the star Belgian.
“It looks like it is the last match in blue for Eden Hazard, a player that was crucial for Chelsea success in this last generation,” the 56-year-old said.
“I think Eden will try to be what he is the majority of the time, a fantastic player on the pitch and to win and go, possibly, I don’t want to say more than possibly, to Real Madrid with a last trophy for Chelsea.”
Both sets of supporters have faced difficulties, with both unable to sell out their ticket allocation.
“I feel sorry for some Chelsea and Arsenal fans that they could not find a way to be in Baku supporting their teams,” Mourinho added.
Mourinho, who is out of work after being sacked by Manchester United in December, believes the pressure is on Unai Emery’s Arsenal in Baku but is delighted to see English sides dominating in Europe.
“More pressure of course for Arsenal because they play for their season. They play for the Champions League next season, they play for many millions, pride for the success of their season,” he said.
“It is really special, we will have two English teams with two cups. We will have at the start of next season two English teams playing the European Super Cup so that’s great news.”
