Eden Hazard has agreed terms with Real Madrid that will see him double his Chelsea wages, reports Evening Standards.
Hazard's move to Madrid, which could cost up to £130million, is expected to be announced within the next 24 hours.
After the two clubs agreed an initial fee yesterday worth £88m plus add-ons that could contribute another £42m, Hazard, who is on international duty with Belgium, met with his legal team to finalise the contract.
Standard Sport understands it took just a few hours for Hazard to accept an offer which will see him increase his salary from £200,000 to £400,000-a-week. The attacking midfielder will be handed a five-year deal and become one of the best-paid players at the Bernabeu.
Chelsea's chances of signing an immediate replacement are in the hands of the Court of Arbitration for Sport, who this morning confirmed the club have appealed against Fifa's two-window transfer ban imposed over the signing of foreign minors.
Hazard is set to be unveiled at the end of next week, after Belgium play the second of their two Euro 2020 qualifiers against Scotland on Tuesday night.
Hazard's move to Real has been in the pipeline since he admitted at the end of last summer's World Cup that he wanted “to discover something different” and insisted “you know my preferred destination”.
