Coming to his departure from Chelsea after seven years of service. Hazard revealed his plans for the following season as he interacted just after the final whistle.
“I’ve made my decision and I told Chelsea two weeks ago. I’m just waiting on both clubs to decide now. I think it’s goodbye. I’ve done this for 7 years and now it’s time for a new challenge.” said Eden Hazard to BT Sport.
Therefore, it is confirmed that the 28-year-old goalkeeper will leave Chelsea in coming days, and is waiting for both the parties to arrive at the final negotiations.
Chelsea fans would be heartbroken after this update, as the player has been very crucial and favourite among the fans ever since he arrived at the Stamford bridge.

Nevertheless, official announcements are yet to be made by either of the clubs as this transfer saga is coming towards its last phase.
