Lille chief hints Man City, Real Madrid in contact for Hazard

Lille chief Frédéric Paquet has ruled out selling star winger Eden Hazard in January.

French sources say Manchester City, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have all been in contact with Lille about the prospect of Hazard being sold during the winter market.

However, Paquet says: "This is something that is completely impossible, we'd never do that and it would go against the squad that's been built it, so it's impossible.

"We have been contacted by eight of the biggest European clubs, 10-12 in the last three years, but only for informal discussions. Today, there is nothing concrete about Eden."
