Eden Hazard Latest – Lille Confirm They’re Ready To Sell

Lille have confirmed they are prepared to sell prized asset Eden Hazard this summer, but have set a hefty asking price of €50 million.

Hazard has become one of the most sought after players in Europe after guiding Lille to the Ligue 1 title last season, with Premier League clubs Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City and Tottenham all linked with a move in recent months.

The Premier League giants will face stiff competition from Real Madrid, Barcelona and Inter Milan for his services, as clubs from all Europe monitor the Belgian ace.

Arsenal were thought to be close to striking a deal in the summer but a deal failed to materialise and now they may be priced out of a move after Lille president Michel Seydoux confirmed they are willing to sell, but only for €50 million which they see as a fair figure given the quality they would need to replace. Asked about the sale of Hazard, Seydoux said:

“The price is €50 million and this has clearly been put forward,” declared Seydoux.

“No one is non-transferable and we should be able to seek solutions in the market with the money obtained.”
