#3 Hazard should press for Madrid move

This is according to Chelsea legend Michael Ballack. For long, Real Madrid have been linked with a move for the Belgian and the player himself has welcomed those stories with open arms.

Meanwhile, the legendary former Germany midfielder praised the former Lille player as one of the best in the Premier League and has called for him to decide as to what he is going to do next.

“Eden Hazard has to decide if he wants to stay or not,” Ballack was quoted as saying. “He’s not only an outstanding player at Chelsea but also in the Premier League.

“Now he has to decide if he wants to play at an ultimate top club. That’s what he’s already communicated from time to time.”

According to Ballack, the Belgium captain is too calm about his future and has advised him to be more demanding about the matters of his future to Chelsea.

"In my opinion, he is a little bit too calm, especially at Chelsea. There should be more demanding and expressing of his wishes.”

Finally, the former Bayer Leverkusen star added that Hazard is in a position to be demanding while also stating that Chelsea will need to make something happen if they are to guarantee accolades because otherwise, keeping Hazard becomes almost impossible.

“He can do that because he is in an outstanding position. If he wants to win more titles with Chelsea, something has to happen otherwise Eden Hazard will think about looking for another opportunity.”

With just a little over a year left in his Chelsea contract, the summer of 2019 will be the decider.
