Real Madrid president Perez to try again for Chelsea ace Hazard if...

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is prepared to revive their pursuit of Chelsea ace Eden Hazard.

Perez, reports Okdiario, is willing to move for the Belgium international if he cannot strike a deal with Monaco over Kylian Mbappe.

Real and Hazard's representatives haven't spoken for some months, but club sources say he remains "crazy for Madrid. He has a home and school already organised".

With the midfielder still waiting to discuss new terms with Chelsea, a door remains open to Hazard moving to Spain.

Real coach Zinedine Zidane remains a huge fan of Hazard and would love to work with him in Madrid.

Perez has made it clear that Mbappe is their first option, but if a deal cannot be struck, he is willing to try again for Hazard.
