EPL: Chelsea demand record-breaking transfer from Real Madrid for Hazard

Chelsea have informed Real Madrid that the club has set Eden Hazard’s price tag at over £100million, the Evening Standard reports.

Hazard is out of contract in 2020 and will have 12 months remaining on his existing deal this summer.

The Belgian star revealed this week that he had made a decision on his future, but refused to confirm whether he will sign a new deal at Stamford Bridge, or pursue his dream move to the Bernabeu.

Reports on Tuesday suggested Hazard had made his mind up on a move to Madrid and it is believed the Blues will demand a record-breaking fee for the player.

Despite the fact that he will have just a year left on his contract, Chelsea reportedly want over £100m to allow Hazard to leave.

That would be a record outgoing fee for a Chelsea player.
