According to a report by Marca, Juventus are considering a potential move for Eden Hazard after Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure yesterday. The Portuguese left Italy after spending three years at Juventus and returned to Manchester United after 12 years. As Bianconeri’s star left they are looking for options to replace him and opted out Hazard as an ideal target.

Eden Hazard joined Real Madrid back in 2019 with a price tag of €100 million. Los Blancos were hoping to see the Belgian magic but all that is a dream due to his frequent injury. Following injuries, Hazard has only appeared 45 times scoring only 5 goals for Real Madrid. And seeing his form and maintenance Real Madrid are keen to offload Eden Hazard as soon as possible.

However, Hazard thinks otherwise as he promises to deliver his best this season. But that’s too late as Real Madrid are going for the new Galactico Kylian Mbappe. And if they are successful in landing Mbappe this summer then there is no chance for Hazard to get more game time. While his jersey no.7 could also be taken away from him as Mbappe arrives.

But his more game-time agenda could be fulfilled if Juventus seal a deal in the last few days of the transfer market. The Italian giants are in a hurry as they need to fill up a gap upfront after Ronaldo left them yesterday. Following this, Eden Hazard is seen as a great option by Juventus to deploy on the wing this season.

As of now, there has been no official negotiation between the clubs. However, sources tell that Juventus might be signing Eden Hazard on loan to avoid any future losses. So, let’s wait and see if the Belgian fly’s to Italy or stays in Spain this season.
