It has not been anywhere near to a good start to the season for Real Madrid as the Galacticos go into the current season as the defending champions in both domestic and European circuits. They got off to a stuttering start in the La Liga followed by disappointing performances in back to back matches against Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League and are now desperate to revive their lost form in the near future.
There is no lack of players on the Real Madrid side, who can take the game in their own stride on their day. However, none of them has been able to show their true colours so far this season, leaving their side in a spot of bother. The reigning La Liga champions are currently in the third position in the league table and are trailing their arch-rivals and present league leaders Barcelona by eight points eleven games down the line.
This has made the gaffer Zinedine Zidane look out for further options to beef up his squad and the name on the top of his target list is that of the Belgian superstar Eden Hazard. The 26-year-old has been a phenomenal figure in the Chelsea lineup since his arrival at the club in 2012 and has made a name for himself with a skilled and composed style of play and ability to score goals.
Termed as one of the best attackers in the current context, the Belgian skipper has been one of the prime targets for a number of clubs in Europe. The 12 times European champions are one of them and have shown a considerable amount of interest to bring the player to Santiago Bernabeu in the near future.
Reportedly, the 26-year-old attacker is also keen to play under the stewardship of the French legend Zidane and might be on his way to join Los Blancos. However, he has a contract at Chelsea, which sees him staying put at Stamford Bridge till 2020, might turn out to be a detrimental factor for him to join Real Madrid in the near future.
The inclusion of the mercurial attacker can help the Spanish giants regain their form and add some much-needed flair to their frontline. However, with his exceptional ability to take any top class defence to the sword, Hazard is impeartive for the reigning Premier League champions, who are ready to do anything to keep him at Stamford Bridge in the near future and fend off any potential suitors, including a club even as big as Real Madrid.
