"Happy" Eden Hazard dismisses talk of Chelsea exit

Hazard dismisses talk of Chelsea exit

Eden Hazard has brushed aside speculation linking him with a move away from Chelsea at the end of the season, claiming that he is "happy" with life in West London.

The Belgium international, who is in the running to be crowned PFA Player of the Year this evening, has been strongly linked with a switch to Real Madrid this summer.

However, speaking to Sky Sports News ahead of his side's showdown against Arsenal on Sunday, Hazard moved to play down any talk of an imminent transfer.

"I am happy here. I play with big players and the most important thing is I want to win trophies and with this club, it is possible," he said.

"The Champions League is difficult. We play against a big team, but one day I hope I can win this trophy as it is the best. All the big players have won the Champions League and I hope I can bring, like Didier [Drogba] did, the Champions League to Stamford Bridge."

Hazard, valued at around £200m by manager Jose Mourinho, has scored 18 goals in all competitions for Chelsea this season.
