Eden Hazard breaks silence on Real Madrid future as Chelsea told transfer stance amid fresh hope

Eden Hazard has confirmed that he wants to see out the remainder of his contract at Real Madrid, ruling out a move in the summer. The 32-year-old forward faces an increasingly uncertain future at the Santiago Bernabeu with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.

Unfortunately for Hazard, his time in the Spanish capital has been plagued by injuries and he hasn't quite had the desired impact since his record-breaking move from Chelsea four-years ago. As a result, even when fit, the Belgium international has found himself out of favour, having struggled to dislodge Vinicius Junior or Marco Asensio from the starting line-up.

Even Federico Valverde, who is typically a box-to-box midfielder, has been preferred by Carlo Ancelotti on the right-wing at times. But, despite the trials and tribulations, Hazard is determined to prove himself at Real Madrid and honour the final year of his deal.
