Man City to make £25m offer for Lille's Hazard

Manchester City are believed to be preparing a £25million (€30m) offer for Lille star Eden Hazard.

Reports suggest that the English league leaders are keen to sign the 20-year old Belgian talent in January and then send him straight back on loan to Lille but his agent Marc Formeaux insists a move to Real Madrid is much preferred.

"In France, people are talking about an offer of €30m from City and that he would then be loaned back to Lille for free until June," Formeaux told AS.

"His future is with one of European football's prestigious clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, Manchester City, AC Milan, Inter or Juventus.

"For Hazard, the president of Lille wants to receive €40m (£33.3m) while the player himself has declared that he wants to play for Madrid."
