Juventus targeting Real Madrid attacker Hazard for January

Juventus are interested in Real Madrid attacker Eden Hazard.

That's according to Ok Diario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, when speaking on El Chiringuito.

Inda, who founded Ok Diario after leaving El Mundo, revealed Hazard could yet be on the move in January. The Belgian is emerging as a target for Juventus, which will be encouraged by Real Madrid to take the attacker off their hands.

Quoted by Ok Diario, Inda stated: "Juventus wants a Real Madrid player to be transferred until the end of the season.

"A player who is more injured than at the coach's disposal. The footballer is Hazard.

"The medical services tell me that he has a headache rather than a physical problem. It's what happened to (Arjen) Robben and (Gareth) Bale. Madrid is willing for him to be gone with a free transfer."

Hazard is currently fully fit at Real Madrid, though is well down the pecking order under coach Carlo Ancelotti. Three years in since his move from Chelsea, so far this season, Hazard has made ten appearances producing one assist.

The midfielder is in the squad for Real Madrid's Champions League group clash tonight with Shakhtar Donetsk at the Santiago Bernabeu.
