Real Madrid to fire £120M offer at Chelsea for Hazard

Real Madrid are set to bid for Chelsea star Eden Hazard in the coming days.

The Sun says Real are preparing an opening £120million bid for Hazard.

The Spanish giants are willing to smash the British transfer record to land the ex-Lille forward, who is in his sixth season at Stamford Bridge.

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane will use the Belgian's contract situation at Chelsea, with two full seasons left, to make him a Galactico.

Hazard was left out of Saturday's starting XI against Stoke, and was an un-used substitute as the Blues cruised to a 5-0 victory.

Hazard's current terms expire in 2020 and Real can crank up the pressure on the Premier League champions to sell.
