Real Madrid signing Eden Hazard has plans of playing in Turkey, it has been claimed.

The Belgium talisman, who moved to Real Madrid from Chelsea in a £150million deal this summer, has told former Fenerbahce chief Hasan Cetinkaya he will play for the Turkish Super Lig side.

Cetinkaya said: "Eden Hazard is an old friend of mine, I've known him since he was 15 or 16 years old and still played for Lille.

The former Fener supremo spoke to Ajansspor: "He had incredible sympathy for Fenerbahce and gave me his word: 'Hasan, one day I'll play for Fenerbahce, I just do not know when that will be."

Hazard, 28, quit Stamford Bridge after seven years at the club.

Cetinkaya is now vice-president of Belgian club Waterloo.

He revealed that Fenerbahce were interested in Hazard at the start of his career.

He said: "He was 16 when he played for Lille, they had him, Gervinho and Sow, but we could only attract Sow to us, and then Hazard reached a different dimension, he was one of the greatest talents in Europe, and I wish he had, time will tell, Eden Hazard will one day play for Fenerbahce."
