Chelsea's Eden Hazard says victory in the Europa League final against Arsenal would be the "perfect farewell" to Chelsea if he is to leave the club this summer. Hazard has been rumored to be on his way to Real Madrid.

 

According to Skysport, Chelsea wants £130m for Eden Hazard but Real Madrid who are confident of signing him value the Belgium international at no more than €100m (£88m) due to the fact that he is entering the final 12 months of his contract at Stamford Bridge.

 

Speaking on his planned move to Madrid, Hazard disclosed that he had already discussed his future with the management of Chelsea.

 

"It is a European competition, so for me, for the club, for the manager, for the fans, it is something important. When you play a final, it does not matter whether it is the Champions League, Europa League or League Cup, you just want to win, you just want to bring the trophy home and celebrate that.

 

"When you play for Chelsea at the start of the season, people think about which trophy we can have at the end of May, so this one is the important one. We lost the League Cup final, so at the end of the season, this is the trophy we can go for.

 

"I just want to win the trophy that is it. It does not matter if I score or I do not score. If it is my last game, I hope to bring the trophy. Would it be the perfect farewell? Yes."
