Eden Hazard put everyone on alert when he revealed he was going to announce who he was about to sign for on Twitter. It was seemingly between Chelsea and the two Manchester clubs.
Eventually he put us all out of the misery of our anticipation by announcing he was to sign for the European champions and we all knew that Stamford Bridge was set to be his new home.

Earlier in the year Kessie admitted he dreamt of playing for Manchester United whilst his agent said that City, Liverpool and Arsenal were all in for him and in April the agent said that Roma were closest to signing his player.
