Hazard made it clear after the World Cup that he wanted to go to Real Madrid, however, the Blues refused to let him move to the Spanish capital.
The 27-year-old has less than two years left on his Chelsea contract and the west London side may be forced to sell Hazard this summer or else risk losing him on a free transfer the following.
Fabregas has now revealed that he thinks the Belgian forward will be leaving come the end of the season, speaking to Standard Sport: "It was an easy decision, especially now, because at this stage how much can Eden cost? Not many teams in the world can buy Eden Hazard. He still had two years left on his contract.

"Next year if he has one year left, that's a different story. You don't have as much power as a club. Eden is one of the best players in the world.
"But having two years left, especially how the market is, it's basically impossible to sign him up. I don't think it was that hard from the club."
The former PFA Player of the Year winner is 6/4 to join Madrid, while he is 5/1 to join Neymar and Mbappe at PSG. A shock move to Premier League rivals Manchester City is 20/1
