Real Madrid have been heavily linked with his services. But the Champions League holders are no longer in the hunt, reportedly withdrawing their interest.

However, Real Madrid's arch rivals, Barcelona, have perked up, and are keen on snapping up Hazard before the close of the window.

According to RMC, Barcelona have contacted Chelsea regarding the sale of Hazard.

Hazard has been at Chelsea since 2012 following a reported £32 million transfer from Lille.

He's performed heroically for Chelsea, helping his side win the Premier League title in 2015 and 2017, not to mention the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League.

While Chelsea bagged silverware last season, the club are without Champions League football for the new season.
