With the new Premier League rule in place that will prevent English clubs signing players 48 hours before the start of the new campaign, it is set to have an impact on the possibility of a move by Eden Hazard from Chelsea to Real Madrid.
Premier League clubs will not be able to bring in new players but other European sides will still be able to sign them and so Chelsea are aware that if after that date Hazard did leave, then they would not be able to replace him.
Hazard appears keen to force his departure from recents comments made in the Belgium media and put in a transfer request.
It is being reported in England that Roman Abramovich has put a figure of 220 million euros on the player although Real are not ready to pay that much.
The club are aware that he is now more in demand after a strong World Cup but at the same time he has just two years left on his contract and is unlikely to sign a new deal.

If @Eden_Hazard wants to leave @Chelsea, the club should let him go. A player has to be loyal to his club mo matter what. What we don't want at Chelsea is for a player to be under-performing because the club did not let him leave as he desired. Chelsea should just line up replacements. In football anyone can be replaced

Chelsea is bigger than Hazard,we had legends who made Chelsea to be where it is & hazard was not one of them,so he can leave & club will remain intact

As the market is, I would not go crazy, there are staff, and young people waiting. Cortois for 35m seems fine to me. I would register an LI of medium profile, 15m or so, xq Theo does not give me any reliability. I would go for Nzonzi that I think the clause is 40m (Llorente ceded). Recover Mariano, and if Cavani comes x an acceptable amount (less than 50m), ok tb. If he does not come, I would stay at Benzema. And James the same, if he recovers cheaply he would bring it to me, he is a bit lazy but he has a goal ...

Do not bring Hazard to avoid leaving Isco or Asensio seems to me the worst of the mistakes Florentino has made. Asensio does not have crack wood, and will never be a top ten in the international football scene like Hazard. As for Isco, we've seen him in this last league, in the Copa against Lega (with his friend Asensio, and Lucas) and in the World Cup ... If Madrid has to depend on Isco and Asensio just for being Spaniards, we're settled ...
