#2 Hazard to Madrid is done

Hazard almost a Real Madrid player?

Things go a step further with this report from Spanish journalist Eduardo Inda as he claims that the Chelsea star has already signed a pre-agreement with the Galacticos. With just over a year left in his contract, the ball is actually in Madrid’s court, which is why these stories come up so frequently.

According to Inda, the Merengues have agreed to a €13 million salary per annum for the superstar and will also give him bonuses should he win the Champions League, the league or the Ballon d’Or.

"Real Madrid has a pre-agreement by Hazard,” he said. “And they are €13m (11.44m) net per season (£220,000-a-week) plus one in case the league is won.

“Another if it is Golden Ball and one and a half if it is a European champion. And the contract is for five seasons.”
