Chelsea & La Liga Club To Complete £43m Deal For Europa League Winner

Reports suggest that Eden Hazard could be set to join Barcelona for a reported fee of £43 million during the January transfer window, as it is widely speculated that Real Madrid would have to break the world transfer record to sign the Belgian forward.

The young Belgian has not had a great start to the season, with Chelsea currently at 16th place on the premier league table with just 11 points out of 12 games.

Spanish media outlet Don Balon claim Barcelona could move for the attacker as they try to bring in more players into their squad after the transfer ban imposed on them last season.

Hazard has been on somewhat of a ghost mode so far this season going from hero to zero in less than 5 months.

Hazard has no goals to his name this season although he has contributed two assists to the side this term.

Barcelona struggled to find good form after Lionel Messi picked up an injury, but the attacking duo of Neymar and Luis Suarez have proven to be capable enough to get the goals for Los Cules.

Hazard would be a great addition to Barcelona after losing Pedro last summer to Chelsea, giving Enrique more options to choose from.

United legend Gary Neville has questioned Eden Hazard’s ability to compete with the likes of Ronaldo and Messi.

“I mentioned three or four months ago, that he [Hazard] was heading towards becoming on the best players in the world.

Of course the best players have dips, but even when they have dips they contribute to the team, they score goals, provide assists.

You have to question his mentality, he’s a nice kid, but is he really a killer? You think about Messi and you think of Ronaldo.”
