Real Madrid agree Eden Hazard fee

 

Real Madrid have agreed a blockbuster £115m deal with Chelsea for top transfer target Eden Hazard, claims The Sun.

 

Hazard’s current Chelsea deal is due to expire at the end of next season and the Belgium international is not expected to renew.

 

The 28-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Madrid since the end of the 2018 World Cup and Zinedine Zidane’s side are on the verge of getting their man.

 

Hazard has up until this point been focusing on Chelsea’s preparations for the Europa League final on Wednesday night.

 

Zidane has pressured Madrid president Florentino Perez to get a deal done for Hazard as quickly as possible and an announcement is expected after the final.

Hazard finished the 2018/19 Premier League campaign as the highest WhoScored rated player in the division (7.81) after playing a direct hand in the most goals (31).

 

Madrid are understood to have agreed an initial £100m deal with Chelsea and could pay a further £15m in performance related add-ons.

 

Hazard is also said to have agreed a stunning £400,000-a-week deal to make him one of the best paid players in Europe.
