Real Madrid captain Ramos: I hope we get world class Hazard

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos is hoping to soon call Chelsea star Eden Hazard a new teammate.

Real are in advanced talks with Chelsea about a £115m deal for the Belgian, who struck twice for Wednesday night's Europa League final victory over Arsenal.

Ramos, who confirmed he will stay at Real, said: “Hazard seems to me a world-class player. I hope he can come.

“I am optimistic about the immediate future of the club with the new players that will arrive.

“I still have the same desire to push for glory and win titles.

“My intention is to construct a new Real Madrid with the president and start to look to the future.

“I still have the physical strength to play for the club."
