Real Madrid have announced the signing of Chelsea star Eden Hazard FINALLY!
Official announcement:
"Real Madrid C. F. and Chelsea FC have agreed on a deal for the player Eden Hazard," the Spanish side said in a statement on Friday night. "The player will join the club for the next five seasons, until the 30th June 2024. Eden Hazard will be presented as a Real Madrid player on Thursday 13th June at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, after undergoing a medical with the club."
Multiple reports on Thursday reported an agreement worth up to €146m (£130m) for the star player had been reached between the clubs, of which €100m (£88m) was an upfront payment.

Hazard has spent a successful seven years at Stamford Bridge, winning the Premier League twice, one FA Cup and two Europa League titles, since a 2012 move from Lille.

We are saddened by his lose but we will respect him since he left like a Legend unlike Courtois. Take care of our boy Madrid because Chelsea blood still flows in him. But Chelsea is not done yet ; Zola left, Drogba left, Lampard left, Terry left but Chelsea kept winning trophies every season. All the best Eden, hope to see you win a UCL and Ballon d'or soon. Goodluck ♠️

Now is the right time to make this message. I just want to say Eden is and always will be a Chelsea legend and a wonderful player who is welcome back at the bridge anytime. He was a leader on the pitch by example and took the team to new heights. 7 wonderful years, a timeline befitting a legend. Through the ups and downs, he was always there for both the club and the fans. A player of immense talent and ability and above all, professionalism. Will be greatly missed at the bridge and wish him the best on his new step in realising his dream, he will tear it up in the La Liga. Now he has passed the torch to the next generation of Chelsea players; Odoi and Loftus Cheek and it's time for us to look ahead as he also looks ahead in his bright career as a Madrid player. Chelsea FC and the fans are grateful for everything Eden has done, once a blue always a blue 💪🔵

so barca fans i hope you see this. as we can see our rivala have obtained a messi wannabe ..a world class player to be honest and it does scare me that this transfer window we arent adding venom to our attack. we play atrociously boring football with only messi playing football the rest are ballwatching. even in madrids worst seask5n to date they played better attacking football AND THEY SCORED LESS. hazard and jovic..plus vinicus jnr..i said once and ill say it again madrid are hurting and when they recover they seem to destroy everything in their path. i remain adiment we buy new players and ASAP.

Why ?
Hazard always dribbles past him like in last year's FA cup final and many other instances. Now he won't get to face him again
