Chelsea Transfer News: Latest on Eden Hazard to Real Madrid Rumours

A summer move to the sunnier climes of Spain would be good for Chelsea star Eden Hazard, according to Belgium boss Marc Wilmots, who thinks the winger would benefit from a lighter workload at Real Madrid.

John Cross and Neil McLeman of the Mirror report Wilmots backs the idea of Hazard moving to the Bernabeu in 2016 after falling under the impression a hectic Premier League schedule is burning him out.
