Although the club has opened the door for him, Eden Hazard (31 years old) does not want to leave Real Madrid. His preference continues to be, as in the previous months, to stay and finish the season in the team of his dreams… despite the fact that recent events show that his role is very limited. Only a more frontal posture of the entity could change that plan, and even then it would be very complicated due to the conditioning factors surrounding the operation.
the Belgian, 17 in minutes from Ancelotti’s squad (only 722, with two assists and no goals), starred in the negative note of the Whites’ victory in the Spanish Super Cup. He did not step on the grass in the semifinal or the final, which showed not only that he is not the first option on the left wing, ahead of Vinicius, but that he is behind Rodrygo, Asensio and even Fede Valverde in the right.
The data of Eden Hazard in the League this season.
Obviously, this circumstance has not pleased the most expensive signing in the history of Real Madrid, that at the end of 2021 seemed to take flight. He was aware that he still lacked rhythm, but the sensations had improved. His new decline has slowed down his progress, but what he thought for his present and his future has not changed.
Real Madrid, open to parting with Hazard
Yes OK things change in the summer, Hazard does not want to pack his bags in this transfer window. Because he still prefers to fight for his illusion, to succeed at the Santiago Bernabu, where he has a contract until 2024, and because It would be a setback for his family, his great priority. He has just become a father and cannot conceive of moving his loved ones from Spain now, very complicated in every way, nor living apart from them.
Nor do the ‘7’ have too many proposals. His performance has dwindled since that fatal kick from Meunier and, despite constant rumours, He is not an option for Chelsea, with whom he has a very close relationship. Nor for the new Newscastle, looking for another profile to try to save the category. And, of course, the attacker’s high salary does not make it easy for him to fit into a hypothetical destination.
At Real Madrid they opt for Hazard’s goodbye, something that already happened in summer. Even more thinking about 2022-23, season for which they are working on powerful additions (Mbapp, Haaland…) and for which they are trying to free up as much salary as possible…
