Hazard reaffirms Chelsea commitment

Eden Hazard is targeting yet another Premier League title and next season’s Player of the Year award.

Despite transfer interest in him from Real Madrid, Chelsea’s brilliant Belgian appears to now be committed to Stamford Bridge and not looking for a move to the Bernabeu.

Hazard, 26, is recovering from a fractured ankle, suffered on international duty, after he clinched his second championship in three seasons.

He could be fit again by the end of August though, and has set his sights firmly on maintaining Chelsea’s dominance of the English top flight and regaining the Player of the Year crown he was awarded two seasons ago.

He said: “Hopefully, next year it is the same — we win the league and then I win Player of the Year.”
