Real Madrid’s boss Zinedine Zidane was reportedly interested in bringing the Chelsea superstar to the Bernabeu in the summer. While Hazard was rumoured to be interested in moving to Spain, the deal did not go through and things returned to normal for Antonio Conte as he held on to his best player. Now, recent reports in Spain have indicated a cooling of interest from Real Madrid.
However, even before the London club can breathe a sigh of relief, Madrid’s arch-rivals Barcelona have been urged by Lionel Messi to sign the player, as per Don Balon . The Argentine wants his club to take advantage of Madrid’s shift in priorities to nab the world-class Belgian.
Reportedly, Messi is a huge fan of the 26-year old’s skill set and believes he will fit in well at Barcelona. Hazard is primarily a left winger and he definitely possesses the ability to create, score and wreak havoc from the wings similar to the departed Neymar.
However, the two-time Premier League winner at Chelsea is also the London club’s biggest superstar and the club will do everything in their power to hold on to the player. Nevertheless, Hazard is the type of player Barcelona should definitely target if they hope to rebuild while retaining their stature.
