Man United appear as surprise destination for £135m-rated UCL giants star
Bookies have slashed the odds on the Premier League heavyweights Chelsea winger Eden Hazard leaving the West London to join league rivals.
Hazard fuelled transfer speculations by admitting after the Blues’ 3-1 loss to Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham Hotspur that he is not ruling out a transfer away in 2019.
Real Madrid have long been considered the frontrunners to sign the Belgium international star, but British national daily tabloid newspaper The Daily Mirror reports that a shock move to either Manchester United or Manchester City in January window could now be a possibility.
The publication cites Ladbrokes spokesman Alex Apati as saying: “Hazard’s recent comments won’t have gone down well with Chelsea fans but he could soon become public enemy number one in West London with a surprise move to United or City potentially on the cards.”
Eden Hazard, out of contract at the end of next campaign, has seven goals and four assists in 12 EPL appearances this season so far.
Chelsea signed the technically gifted forward from the Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille in the summer transfer market of 2012 for a reported £31.5 million fee.
