Fabrizio Romano has addressed rumours linking Eden Hazard with a sensational return to Chelsea amid reports that the 32-year-old could retire from football all-together.

Hazard became a free agent over the summer after being released by Real Madrid following a tricky four-year spell at the Bernabeu.

The Belgium international scored just seven goals in 76 appearances for the Spanish giants in a move that is widely considered to have stunted an otherwise excellent career.

The former Chelsea winger is thought to have since received offers from the United States, England, Spain, France and Saudi Arabia, along with a mystery proposal from Scotland.

Crystal Place also reportedly attempted to sign Hazard as a replacement for Wilfried Zaha, who joined Turkish giants Galatasaray over the summer.

Meanwhile, he has been linked with an emotional return to Chelsea after he was spotted visiting Stamford Bridge in August.

However, transfer expert Romano has rubbished claims that Hazard could return to west London, branding the rumours 'untrue'.

“There’s a lot being speculated about Eden Hazard, who remains a free agent, but at the moment I’m not aware of anything concrete," Romano said in his column for CaughtOffside.

"There are a lot of rumours, but nothing advanced, because at the moment Hazard is still discussing with his family and those close to him about retirement.

“Retirement for Hazard is a concrete possibility, but it’s not a final decision yet, and I think when we talk about a big decision like this for an important player like Hazard, I like to be respectful. It’s the player who has to decide and communicate, not for me or other journalists in general."

The Italian added: “For sure he’s considering retirement, but let’s see what he will decide, and I can say that all the rumours about Belgian clubs, or a return to Chelsea or other clubs, none of this was concrete or true.”
