Lille manager Rudi Garcia has confirmed that no formal bids have been received for Belgian youngster Eden Hazard, despite rumoured interest from the Premier League.

Arsenal and Liverpool have been involved in speculation linking the 20-year-old away from France, however Lille have announced that the midfielder is staying put.

"We have not received any formal offer for Hazard, not from France or England,” Garcia told RMC Sport. “At the moment there is nothing happening and next season he will play with us in the Champions League.

"It's an important element for the team and we hope to progress with him. For Lille this is great news."
