Chelsea are reportedly set to enter talks with Thierry Hazard over the possibility of extending his son’s contract.
This new comes from Pipe Sierra, whose word can’t exactly be taken as gospel after recent transfer related misfires.
Because it’s positive news relating to Eden, though, we’ll hope that he’s got his information right on this occasion.
Sierra claims that Thierry Hazard will sit down with Chelsea this week to discuss terms of a potential extension for his son.
Hazard has been continually linked with a move to Real Madrid. He’s himself admitted that he could be keen on making the move.
Sierra is under the impression that Chelsea will offer Hazard £300K-a-week in a bid to convince him to remain at the club.
That’d make the 27-year-old the highest-paid player ever to pull on a Chelsea shirt. He’s worth every penny.
We face a nervous wait to discover whether Hazard would be willing to commit to an extension.
