Eden Hazard has revealed that he had already decided to leave Chelsea a year before he left the club this summer.
Hazard join Real Madrid for a £150million but admitted he had already decided to leave the Stamford Bridge a year earlier and his former Chelsea team-mate Thibaut Courtois helped influence him.
“Courtois is someone I know well and in which I trust,” he told Real Madrid TV. “He always told me it was the best club. When he finished the World Cup in Russia I wanted to go to Madrid, I had already made the decision.
“It was not possible and I was another year Chelsea. That made the exit easier, Chelsea understood and let me out. I spoke to Florentino and told me that I expected in Madrid. After I spoke with Luka Modric and felt that everyone wanted me to see at Real Madrid. And finally fulfilled.”
