Eden Hazard fears Chelsea will force him to stay one more year

Eden Hazard fears Chelsea’s transfer ban will scupper his £100million move to Real Madrid. The Blues handed a two-window suspension by FIFA which prohibits them from signing any players until the summer of 2020. According to The Sun, Chelsea are considering keeping Hazard for the final year of his contract and allowing him to leave on a free transfer next year. The 28-year-old has been linked with a move to Real for several months, having made no secret of his admiration for last season’s Champions League champions. According to Press Association Sport, Chelsea are holding out for £100million if they are forced to sell him. After a 0-0 draw with Leicester City Hazard revealed he has made the club aware of his decision. “Yes. A couple of weeks ago. Yes I have made my decision but it is not just about me,” said Hazard. “I have made my decision, that’s it.” When asked if his future will become clear after the Europa League final against Arsenal on May 29 he added: “I think so. We have a final to play and then I will see.”
