Real Madrid caught napping as Premier League rivals go for Hazard
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is being kicked into action over his interest in Lille star Eden Hazard.
Florentino has Real chief Zinedine Zidane keeping close tabs on the Belgian dazzler this season, but the race for his signature is just about to go into overdrive.
Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United all had scouts at PSG on the weekend to see Hazard in action for Lille.
The news has alarmed Real's technical chiefs and put pressure on Florentino to step up his own plans to land the Ligue 1 Player of the Year.
Mega spending City have plans to buy Hazard in January for £30 million and loan him back to Lille for the remainder of the season.

where will he fit at RM?
Is he going to take Ozil's spot? Is Kaka leaving?
Obviously Man City are Greedy Kunts. Can't have every player!! even if they would like to!!
The only reason I don't like Man city is palpable fear of their rivals potentials. They will always make move for every player targeted by Man utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and even Liverpool. Even when they don't need such player, they will buy and keep him on the bench or loan him out.
e.g They didn't need Clichy, W. Bridge and Kolarov at same position at same time for God sake.
Now, they are refusing to loan Wayne Bridge to arsenal for fear of... ?
Now,Eden Hazard being scouted even when they have no place for Samir Nasri, whom they purchased purposely to weaken Arsenal squad. See their mid-field: Silva,Nasri, Y.Toure,A.Johnson, Barry, Nigel de Jong,O. Hargreaves,J.Milner.......
Mancini is scared and greedy.
Period!
