Revealed!! Chelsea ace Eden Hazard pushed to join Real Madrid last month

Marca says days before the Champions League final, his father Thierry Hazard made contact with Real Madrid to offer them the chance to sign the forward.

He explained that talks over a new deal at Stamford Bridge were on hold because Eden thinks the time has come to move on with no Champions League football in west London next
season.

"Eden rejected extending his contract with Chelsea so that, when it comes, he can consider the interest of Real Madrid , where he'd fit in well," Thierry told Le Soir only a few months ago.

With two goals in as many games, Hazard has been one of the shining stars of the World Cup in Russia having come on leaps and bounds from when Zinedine Zidane was watching him at Lille under the orders of Florentino Perez six years ago.

Real Madrid are keeping a close eye on Hazard's progress in Russia, even if his position is one that is already covered with Isco, Marco Asensio
and Gareth Bale.
