Eden Hazard's 2019 transfer value of €150m has plummeted to a new low in 2023, it's sad to see

Real Madrid flop Eden Hazard has seen his transfer value drop from €150m to a new low after his turbulent spell in the Spanish capital.

Hazard left Stamford Bridge in 2019 to complete a blockbuster move to Madrid, with Los Blancos splashing out an initial fee of £89m and £60m through various add-ons.

However, the 32-year-old Belgian winger has been marred with injuries during his spell at the La Liga club and struggled to secure a regular place in the starting XI.

Hazard is out of contract in summer 2024 and Madrid are keen to offload the former Chelsea star, who is earning a mammoth £416,000 per week at the La Liga club.

The ex-Belgium international recently claimed that he wants to stay at Madrid, despite revealing that his relationship with Los Blancos manager Carlo Ancelotti has broken down.

According to Marca, Transfermarkt has dropped its latest update and Hazard’s value is only worth €5m after the Madrid winger’s price dropped by €2.5m.

The Spanish newspaper added that Hazard was worth an eye-watering €150m when he first signed for Madrid.

Hazard represented Belgium for the final time at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar before the Red Devils crashed out of Group F, with Morocco and Croatia reaching the knockout rounds.

Following his international retirement, Hazard said: “I knew for some time that I would stop after the World Cup.

“The performance in Qatar was not decisive for my decision. Of course, it is a pity how it turned out, but my decision was made in advance. It was just time to stop.

“I first started thinking about it after the European Championships. I had done my best to be fit in time after my ankle injury.

“Unfortunately, I couldn’t play in the quarter-final loss to Italy and that really made a mental difference.

“I also play football in Madrid with Toni Kroos. He quit the German national team two years ago and he told me that when others have international commitments, he could take advantage of that time to enjoy with his family.”
