CHELSEA TRANSFER NEWS: EDEN HAZARD OFF TO REAL MADRID SAYS DANNY MURPHY

The Belgium international has long been linked with a big move to the Bernabeu, with Real looking as ever to bring in ‘Galactico’ signings in this summer’s transfer window.

With growing speculation that James Rodriguez will be on his way out of Madrid this summer, Hazard makes sense as a replacement and Murphy says that noises from both sides suggest the deal is on.

Premier League sides have struggled to hold on to their stars when the likes of Real and Barcelona have come calling in recent years, and the former Reds midfielder has tipped Hazard to follow the path of the likes of Gareth Bale and Luis Suarez by moving to Spain.

‘I don’t expect to see him in a Chelsea shirt with everything we have heard. You hear what Madrid are saying, you hear what Hazard’s saying – it seems inevitable there’s a move in the offing,’ Murphy said on Match of the Day.
