Former Chelsea boss Roberto di Matteo believes Eden Hazard will struggle to cut ties this summer.

Hazard is expected to move to Real Madrid this summer.

But Di Matteo told Sky Sports: "It would be a real shame for any club to lose a top player like Hazard," Di Matteo told Sky Sports.

"But I don't think it will be as easy as that because if you take into account the transfer ban Chelsea have, I'm not sure they are going to let anyone leave easily that they don't want to.

"It's understandable that there might be some intention from him to have a different experience at a different club and in a different league after many years at Chelsea.

"But he's got a contract and at the end I guess they'll have to sit down and see what solution they can find."
