Eden Hazard is enjoying his first weeks as a Chelsea player.

The former French Footballer of the Year turned down offers from Manchester City and Manchester United this summer in favour of a £150,000-a-week Chelsea deal.

And he admits that it was the prospect of joining the reigning European champions which ultimately swayed his decision.

He told The Sun: "Chelsea had the most convincing argument for me to join and obviously being the Champions League winners was a big factor in my choice.

"Chelsea is a fantastic club with fantastic players and they can give me the best possible chance to progress as a player.

"It's a slightly less important reason but London is also a bit closer to Belgium than Manchester and I can get home a little easier from here."
