‘Zidane supporter’ Hazard hails coach’s return to Real Madrid amid Chelsea exit speculation

Chelsea star Eden Hazard admitted he is pleased Zinedine Zidane has returned to Real Madrid, though he declined to address questions over his future as “another month with Chelsea” awaits.

Zidane won three straight Champions League crowns with Madrid before abruptly resigning following their 2018 triumph in Kiev.

After the brief failed tenures of Julen Lopetegui and Santiago Solari saw Madrid lose sight of Barcelona in La Liga and eliminated in both the Champions League and Copa del Rey, the club returned to Zidane, enticing the France legend back for a second stint as the Blancos boss.
