This week, it was reported that Hazard is also close to signing a contract with Real Madrid. According to Spanish media outlet, Don Balon reported that Los Blancos manager Zinedine Zidane has been in touch with the 26-year-old youngster.

However, in the last month Hazard rubbished all these reports by saying that he is happy at Chelsea while admitting his ‘admiration’ for Zidane’s outfit.

At Stamford Bridge, Hazard has a contract till 2020.

When Real Madrid have launched the bid for Hazard, Isco expressed his unhappiness. Former Malaga man believes the deal has been inked already.

However, this deal is a good sign for the big players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema who are not happy with Isco. Even, Ronaldo reckoned Isco as a ‘rotten apple’, and they believed it is Isco who is the reason behind Real Madrid’s inconsistency in La Liga and in the Champions League.

Recently, Ronaldo asked his president Florentino Pérez to pave way Isco’s departure as the Portuguese megastar believes that it will help Real Madrid will make a solid turnaround in the ongoing season.

So, a deal with Hazard means Isco’s departure from the biggest club in the world is certain.
