There's rumours circulating England and all over the world that Chelsea's playmaker Eden Hazard will depart from Stanford Bridge in the January transfer window.
But the Belgian made it clear when he appeared ia a pre-match press conference in Tubize, Belgium for a Nations League match between Belgium and Switzerland, and when proceeded to ask Eden Hazard some questions about his future at Chelsea, all though it was questions about things he already said he didn’t want to talk about “every day” yet he answered.
Hazard looks jovial and calm with the questions using his level of teasing and mischief, answering the first question, “Are you the best player in the world?” Hazard asked for the repetition of the question by saying “Again?” before saying “Yes”, but acknowledging, as usual, that there is always room for improvement (more goals, more assists, etc).
This then sets up the real question about Ballon d’Or aspirations, which is something apparently only players in La Liga may have (thanks to Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo winning the last ten).
Asked if that’s the reason he wants to move to Madrid, Hazard responds with a “That’s why I want to go - maybe”.
If you know Eden “we’ll see” Hazard, that style of answer will be familiar.
Sports papers in England being so interested in Eden's answer "That's why I want to go - maybe" picking this up and running with it (while leaving out the “maybe” part), but it has already clear to the fans why Eden is considering a move to Real Madrid.
It’s his childhood dream. And he wants to play in (and win) the Champions League.
It may or may not have anything to do with an individual accolade, which would be an uncharacteristic ambition.
It also won’t be happening in January, that much he unequivocally denied and left no room for interpretation with a simple, straightforward “No”.
