"Yes" from Zidane and "no" from Chelsea to Hazard

The love story between Real Madrid and Eden Hazard is an old one. The club want Hazard and Hazard has made it perfectly clear that he is equally enamored with the Madrid based club. 

Both Hazard and Real manager, Zinedine Zidane, have declared each other's admiration for one and other, with both of them also saying how much they would like the opportunity to work with each other in the future.

According to Spanish newspaper "AS", Zidane has already given the green light for the Hazard chase, saying "yes I want Hazard".

There is no agreement between the two sides, but it seems more and more likely to be a closed deal in the near future, with Real wanting to secure Hazard's services for this summer.

Chelsea are also apparently also ready for Hazard to leave, but only for 116 million euros, a figure that Real are rumoured not to be overly keen on paying, believing they can get him for far less, believing he is worth no more than 90 million euros, due mainly to his contract running out at the end of the 2020 season.

That Hazard arrived on the radar for Real many months ago is a surprise to nobody, but the return of Zidane to the Madrid bench has led to an even larger interest in the Belgian playing at the Bernabeu next season.

According to the 'Telegraph' in it's Wednesday edition, Chelsea are fully prepared for the exit of Hazard, and know that his future is at Madrid.
