Eden Hazard vows to lead Chelsea into Champions League

Hazard vows to lead Chelsea into Champions League

Eden Hazard has insisted that Chelsea are too big a club to miss out on the Champions League and has pledged to guide them back into UEFA's showpiece competition.

The Blues drew 1-1 against rivals Manchester United on Sunday afternoon to leave their top-four destiny in their own hands with two games to go.

Chelsea can also book a place in next season's Champions League by going all the way in the Europa League this term, with Eintracht Frankfurt up next in the semi-finals.

Hazard has been heavily tipped to join Real Madrid and, should he indeed make the move to Spain this summer, he intends to go out on a high.

"Chelsea has to play in the Champions League every year," he told Sky Sports News. "It's one of biggest clubs in the world, and for myself also I want to play in the Champions League - and we will."

Chelsea are two points better off than fifth-placed Arsenal and a further point in front of United.
