All that remains is for the Belgian to agree personal terms – and the deal could be confirmed any moment.
Belgian football expert Kristof Terreur, a friend of Hazard’s, reveals why Madrid are keen to make the announcement sooner rather than later.
“They want to announce the deal as fast as possible, maybe even today, because tomorrow they are launching their new kit, so they might want Hazard to pose with the new shirt,” he told talkSPORT 2 on Thursday.
