Hazard: My future? We’ll see at season’s end

Published on

Chelsea star Eden Hazard said he will decide his future at the end of the season amid ongoing links with Real Madrid.

The forward’s Chelsea contract expires in 2020 and a potential move to Champions League holders Madrid continues to dominate headlines.

After reaching a century of goals for Chelsea in their 2-1 win over Watford in the Premier League on Wednesday, Hazard said: ‘I am just focused on the pitch.’

The 27-year-old added: ‘I will see at the end of the season.’

Belgium international Hazard – who has 101 goals for Chelsea since arriving from Lille in 2012 – has found the back of the net 10 times in the Premier League this season while tallying nine assists.

The forward has proven a vital component of Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea so far this campaign as the club’s number 9’s have under-performed, leaving the goal scoring duties almost solely on the Belgian’s shoulders.

Chelsea are fourth and 11 points off the pace ahead of Sunday’s trip to Crystal Palace.
