Chelsea winger Eden Hazard 'becomes Real Madrid's priority'

Real Madrid have reportedly decided to prioritise the signing of Chelsea winger Eden Hazard during the summer transfer window.

The European champions have been frequently linked with an approach for Hazard, who now has less than 18 months remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea are considered likely to sell Hazard in the summer if the Belgium international does not agree fresh terms, and Real are already expected to make an approach for the playmaker.

However, according to the London Evening Standard, the Spanish giants now regard the addition of Hazard as priority over the likes of Neymar or Kylian Mbappe.

Real have continually been linked with each of the Paris Saint-Germain duo, but it appears that they will attempt to finalise the more likely signing of Hazard.
