Transfer news: Eden Hazard will leave Chelsea on one condition – Puel
Leicester manager, Claude Puel has revealed that Chelsea ace, Eden Hazard will only leave Stamford Bridge on one condition.
Puel, who worked with Hazard at Lille, admits the Belgium International will only leave the Premier league champion for one of the “great teams in Europe” to become the best.
He said Hazard is a top player who is destined to play for only top clubs around the world.
Puel feels it may be only a matter of time for the 27-year-old before such a move is made, with the Leicester boss telling reporters: “He can continue to make progress.
“After, I don’t know if he has to stay at Chelsea or not – is that a problem?
“He has all the qualities to play for all the great teams in Europe.
“He can make the difference, so for me he is a top player in Europe.”
Hazard is widely considered to be one of the finest talents in world football, but he currently occupies a standing just below the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
