Chelsea and Madrid discussing Hazard loan

According to Radio Marca journalist Ramón Álvarez de Mon, Chelsea and Real Madrid are negotiating over a season-long loan of Eden Hazard for the 2022/23 campaign.

It would be a loan without an option to buy, with the Belgian returning to the Bernabeu in the summer of 2023.

Marca are normally a reliable source but take this rumour with a pinch of salt.

First of all, at the time of writing, no English source has reported that the clubs are discussing a move for Eden. Additionally, rumours linking Hazard with a return to the Bridge keep appearing every once in a while and nothing has materialised yet.

The 31-year-old is struggling at Real Madrid under Carlo Ancelotti this season, making just 22 appearances and recording a goal and two assists.
