From Spain: €50m-rated Real Madrid flop Hazard open to Milan move – big pay cut needed

By Oliver Fisher -

Real Madrid are looking to offload Eden Hazard and AC Milan have been mentioned as a potential destination for the forward in a report from Spain.

Fichajes.net report how Hazard has not come close to meeting the expectations that were placed upon him when he was bought for almost €160m (€100m plus €46m in bonuses according to Wiki) from Chelsea. The Belgian has been injured for longer than he has been on the pitch since he arrived and that is why he could leave this month.

West Ham United are mentioned as having an interest in Hazard as they believe he would be a quality reinforcement for their attacking department but the problem for them is paying the high salary that the ex-Chelsea man has has. One of the teams that could afford the arrival of Hazard is Newcastle United thanks to their ownership, and they could also pay the €50m asking price.

Borussia Dortmund have expressed tentative interest but for now the German club appear a somewhat more remote option, and one that could only become serious if they were to sell Erling Haaland.

Finally, the report mentions that Milan need forwards if they are to win the league title and to go further in the Champions League next season. Hazard for his part would welcome the idea of a move to San Siro, but a big pay cut would be needed.

  1. Again, we cannot be the club that nurses injured players back to their level. This doesnt work. We are an injury prone team and adding another expensive injury prone player would be a waste of money. Big NO

  2. maaaan, you all don’t know what ur talking about.. He would simply destroy Serie A, he is fit !!!! If you relay on this guy, he will give you magic. This would be an absolute dream transfer!!

  3. I’ve had a good laugh. I just think Hazard to Milan is gonna be hazardous. Great player when fit but can he be for us what he was for Chelsea?

  4. All those has beens linked to MIlan every window. Last time it was James, Coutinho, Isco…

    And eveybody in comments was so excited about that. Look at those guys now. James is on retirement in Quatar and the other two never see the pitch.

    Hazard is over. 4 separate muscle injuries last season! More then 4 months lost iin total. With MilanLab (or the training pitch or whatever is killing our current roster) you can easily double that.

    He was great, but the injuries have destryed him. For player relying on explosiveness this is the end of the road.

    Even when he is healthy his goal contribution his 3 seasons with RM is barely better than Saeles provided for us just last season.

    50M asking price is a joke. RM should pay someone to take him off their books. Not worth 1/10 of his current salary.
