Controversial thought - if the transfer ban sticks, keep Hazard and sell Willian/Pedro. Let Hazard run down the contract and see if Real will still be interested this time next year and want to buy a 29-year-old.

If Hazard stays then CHO will leave. And if we go down that route in 12 months we'll also lose Hazard for free.

I hope this Hazard transfer is done as soon as possible so that the manager, the club and everyone else can start preparing for the future. No point postponing the inevitable

Marca is one pathetic piece of garbage. I have read this "already looking for a house in Madrid' shit like a 100 times. Messi, Ronaldinho, David Villa, Kepa.. Hazard have been looking for a house in Madrid for 7 years, ridiculous.

The deal is possible though. If Hazard wants to go I would let him, he has done so much for this club and stayed many times when he could've left.. If Real is his dream we shouldn't stop him.

Also, Hudson-Odoi's best position is LW, maybe him being a starter next year is our only chance to convince him to sign a new contract.

If we didnt have a transfer ban I would be more happy to see him go. I think if Pulisic can hit the ground running and Callum can play a lot more we will see less of Pedro and Willian. The midfield still needs another player who can provide goals and assists (although RLC has done it this season but he needs to do it consistently) and we need to reinforce our back 4 and uptop. Left back and left sided CB is still an issue for me.

Well, if the transfer ban does stick, the thought of having Hazard + CHO + Pulisic + Willian/Pedro is better than CHO + Pulisic + Willian + Pedro. Hell, we might even up with just Pulisic + Willian + Pedro!

Tbf if Zidane and Real really want him its not a lot of money for them to spend. I think Mbappe and Neymar will still be their first choice targets ahead of him as well as possibly Paul Pogba. If they get one of them from PSG I doubt theyd be willing to drop 100m they could use towards getting Pogba as well. Suppose we will see. If we bow to pressure and sell him for less than 100m I would be incredibly disappointed. But when has the club ever sold a good player for a smaller fee than they believe hes worth? If he doesnt go does anyone really think Real will wait a season to get him on a free when he would be 29? I dont think so. Honestly I think we could easily get 115m pounds for him still from Real. 1 year or not left they want quality hes easily a 100m+ player if the likes of van Dijk and Lukaku are 75m players.

wow that'd be a long-ass deal, if true.

Speaking of which, wonder how big his ass will be at 32 or so.

Only if we can buy players as well. If not I expect Hazard, Zappacosta out. James and Pulisic in. And Mount or Bakayoko for Kovacic. Plus Cahill - Zouma.

Fake news most probably but if true, then take it and run.

we brought this upon ourselves with the failure to properly pair Hazard with quality players, bad management by the board who failed to build on from previous title wins. Can't fault Hazard for leaving as he as done and won everything he could for us, lets see if he can end his stay here on a high this season with another european trophy.

I don't think we should blame the board or the coach this time. Hazard has always claimed that Real Madrid were a dream of his. Also, he said many times how inspirational Zidane was to him.

I remember when we purchased him many people - even some Chelsea fans - expected him to play 2-3 seasons for us then switch to Madrid. He stayed here for 7 years, even at bad times, so I am thankful to him., but as  long as it's not official I still hope he'd stay.

Real Madrid are increasingly confident of signing Eden Hazard this summer, Sky Sports News understands.

However, Chelsea are holding out for £100m despite Hazard having just over a year left on his contract.

The situation is made complicated by Chelsea's two-window transfer ban, which will come into effect this summer, with the Blues' appeal to be heard on Thursday.

The Belgium star admitted earlier this season that he was torn between signing a new deal at Stamford Bridge or make a long-talked-about switch the Bernabeu

Sky Sports are really crap these days. They basically used rumors from other sources like it's their own. Evening Standard reported pretty much the same thing last week.

United have gone through it in recent years with Ronaldo, Liverpool went through it with Suarez and then Coutinho, Spuds with Bale and Modric, Arsenal with RvP. Now it's our turn to sell our best player in their prime. All those clubs have managed to move on well for the most part. Liverpool, through excellent management and great signings, are now far better than they were before. Spuds likewise.

City are the only club in the PL now who are probably immune to having any of their players poached because they have the best coach and unlimited money to offer in wages.

Our problems are that we may be fucked by a transfer ban and even if we aren't, our club are shit at recruitment these days. Even Sarri has come out over the last week and said he wants to keep Kova who has been average, Higuain who has been disappointing, and doesn't feel like we need another midfielder to compete with Jorginho. 

So we'll basically have the same squad as this season minus our best player. Doesn't sound so great, does it?
