The club where everyone wants to play at least once in their career, Real Madrid is the ultimate destination for each and every budding star. Though the Belgian captain is already a well-established icon in the world of football, still it seems his journey with Real Madrid may take some time to kick off. Real Madrid seems in a real mess where the European Champions have gone down to the seventh position in the La Liga points table. Madrid have played nine games yet but managed to win only four out of it.
The former Spanish National team manager Julen Lopetegui is under severe pressure at the Bernabeu as the reports claiming he may get sacked before the El Clasico on Sunday. Real faced Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League last evening which could be the final game for the former Spain manager.
Though the defending Champions League side managed to sweep off a victory where they won by a narrow 2-1 margin. According to the reports, Conte is the front-runner to replace Lopetegui although no definitive decision has been made. However, the arrival of the Italian manager may permanently off-board the chances of joining the Belgian to the Spanish side. The Belgian is well known to have not enjoyed the more defensive style of football of the Italian manager employed at Stamford Bridge.
Though Conte managed to win the league title on his debut season at Chelsea, his false nine strategies failed terribly in the next one. On the other hand, the former Napoli manager Maurizio Sarri employed a fascinating attacking football at the Bridge which may definitely ingrowth the wings of the winger.
Along with Conte, the former Real Madrid star Guti and current coach Santiago Solari are also said to be in the list of choice. However, earlier in the week, Lopetegui vowed to fight on and try to save his job at the Bernabeu. He said that results haven’t been great but they are going to turn this around. He also said that what he has learned about that club is to fight which is the DNA of this club and that’s what they are going to do, fight, both the players and the coaching staff.
Moreover, Hazard has been in sensational form for the Blues so far this season. He has already netted eight goals in all competitions. Chelsea are now in the leader zone in the points table and look like a tough contender for the league title.
However, the Belgian had been continually linked with a switch to Real Madrid and Florentino Perez has covered his signature for years. As the report suggests, Hazard may have been stalling on a new deal which will reopen talks over Christmas over an extension worth £350,000 a week.
The winger has previously expressed his desire to join Los Blancos, although he could finish his career with the Blues as he hinted last week. As he said that he has no problem to finish his career at Chelsea. He also added that he is very happy with the club, with the team and his family is happy there in London. So it doesn’t matter to him if he never could join Real Madrid. He expressed his love for the club and said he loves the fans and he thinks that the fans love him too and added that what may happen in the future, he will be happy.
