With 16 goals and 13 assists, Hazard has been one of the best players in the Premier League in the current season. The Belgian star is one of the biggest reasons behind Chelsea currently being in the top-four.

Over the years, Hazard has proven to be an asset for the Blues. The Belgian talisman was sensational in the 2018 World Cup and carried his majestic run of form into the Premier League season. Hazard will enter the last year of his contract in the 2019/20 season and he has reportedly declined contract renewal offers from Chelsea.

According to the report, Chelsea value Hazard around €115 million, while Madrid are unwilling to pay more than €90 million because the player will be available on a free transfer in the summer of 2020.

Sergio Ramos started following Eden Hazard on Instagram.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid skipper Ramos has fuelled the speculation even more by following the Chelsea talisman on Instagram.
