If we do keep him because Madrid will not meet our valuation, will he still feel 100% committed to this season?

I recall Sarri saying at least once recently his mind is not totally focussed on the game.

 

All parties involved want the move, we want him to go because he wants to go, same goes for the club. 

But Real Madrid think we're a soft touch (which isn't far off), Morata was dumped on us in return for a bag of gold bigger than any bad of gold that has left Stamford Bridge. 

If Morata was worth £60m 2 years ago, then Hazard is worth TEN times more, but we would settle for double, which = £120m.

Give them the pen............

I think that may have been the case with RM previously, less sure now due to the FPP and think Zidane has a €200m war chest and wants three players.

Unless of course he can unload others, which means protracted negotiations.

Maybe this belongs on the Drogba thread but you are f*ckin right Eden. 

“I was a little bit scared when I came, because Didier left immediately and if you have Didier in the team you will win a trophy. But, in the end, I played with top players. If you look at my seven years at Chelsea, we did something amazing together. We won trophies and I am just happy. When I came here I was a baby. Now I am a big man.”

“We have been trying to make Hazard a Real Madrid player for several years. We are working on a project to make people dream again, where we recover our hunger and ambition. I have already lived through this stage before.

“I have a dream that Hazard will arrive this year. Let’s make a good team this year. I have a lot of interest in Hazard coming to Madrid. He’s one of the great footballers. Last year we wanted him, but this year he only has one year left on his contract and it is easier.”

-Florentino Perez; source: Onda Cero via Managing Madrid

Hazard on transfer to Real Madrid: "That's possible. We'll see. It's in the hands of the clubs. But there's a lovely match to play. It's not in my head right now" Asked what if Chelsea compel him to stay:" I don't know. That's a difficult one to answer. A year is long, no?"

Clearly an orchestrated transfer. Can’t see this ending well if we hold out for £130m, and we don’t owe him a move to Madrid.

Perez is a bellend, you don't talk about a player from another club until something is agreed. Especially not when that player has a European final in 2 days. 

I don’t like when any club talks so openly about signing a specific player.

A deal for Eden might well be as good as done already but it just looks crass talking that way, especially when the player is preparing for a final.

I just hope to see him showing the best of him tomorrow.

His last game must be respected, 90% of me saying he is Real Madrid player already. But still got 10% that he could possibly stay with us.

#EdenPleaseStay

just for the sake of such disrispect to our club before the final we should add another 10m quid to the asking price

pay up or shut up you f**king kant

Real Madrid has zero phucks about any side current competition/situation. Just look at how the business with Lopetegi went during the World Cup. Lopetegi was distracted with negotiations with Real Madrid & got the sack. I didn't hear any apologies given to The Spanish Football Federation. Real Madrid wanted their man & they went after him.

Real and Bayern are both utterly devoid of class when it comes to chasing players.

can we add PSG & Man City to that list? Also I know spuds & lolpool would like to add us to that list. Remember how we snatched Willian & Salah from them at last minute 

p.s - Oh Yeah I forgot how we snatched Pedro from manure at the last second as well

But then Spurs snatched Sissoko from Everton last minute, as well.  A lot of teams do it, Spurs just resort to stealing average players from mid-table sides.

Exactly.  And yet Madrid do this year after year, after year.

It wouldn't surprise me if the £130m that we are supposedly holding out for is actually €130m. Real want to pay €100m which equates to the £88m being quoted.

In true negotiating manner we'll no doubt agree in the middle, €115m = £100m, which is what we were reported as wanting for him when these rumours were about last year.

It's all just sh!t lazy journalism.

Done deal it seems... over 100M is good money for a player entering their last season, just think what it would have been if he had a few years left though....

Lets enjoy his last game of us, give him his due praise and hopefully a good send off. 

 

? 

Confirmed he is leaving tonight

Cheers for the memories Eden

Always a blue 

Chelsea legends don’t leave for that s*** club at their peak. Some serious cucks in here. F him.

A tear in my Eye, as Eden actually said it is probably goodbye, and that was it?

Give over

Legend.

He will be greatly missed by everybody at the club.

It's hard, but I have been expecting it all season, and I'm just happy he will go after helping us win another trophy. It will feel very odd without him around going forward, but we must keeping going. Thanks Eden, you have been one of the best players I have ever watched play for us, possibly the best, definitely the most entertaining. 

A Chelsea legend for me, no doubt it. You don't be the best player at the club for 7 years and being the key player in those trophy winning seasons and not be a club legend for me.

Thanks for the wonderful memories memories that all Chelsea fans will be looking back at for years to come.

The thought of him leaving is making me tear up.

I'll be a wreck if/when he goes...
