Ex-Chelsea captain Eden Hazard makes playing decision

Former Chelsea captain Eden Hazard is set to announce his retirement.

Hazard, 32, is a free agent after being released from his Real Madrid contract a year early at the end of last season.

The former Belgium captain has received enquiries from MLS, Saudi Arabia and across Europe. However, Foot Mercato says he has decided to hang up his boots.

Hazard managed just six LaLiga appearances with Real Madrid last season, having joined in 2019.

With Chelsea, he had a record of 352 appearances, 110 goals and 92 assists.
