  • Eden Hazard‘s proposed move to Real Madrid is all but completed with the La Liga giants reportedly splashing €100 million on the Chelsea star.

    According to El Chiringuito TV, the Premier League outfit have accepted Madrid’s bid and an official announcement from the Santiago Bernabeu club is expected later on Wednesday or on Thursday afternoon.

    This is in contrast to reports from the London Standard which claimed the deal had hit a major stumbling block after talks collapsed over the transfer fee.

    Hazard has repeatedly spoken about his desire to leave Stamford Bridge for the Spanish capital, even admitting that he wanted to make the switch last summer but a deal between the two clubs couldn’t be reached.

    He now appears destined to end a seven-year stay with the Blues, especially after reiterating his desire to leave after a fine display in the Europa League triumph against Arsenal.

    The Belgian will leave Chelsea having scored 110 times in 352 appearances.
