Chelsea forward Willian says he will be “very sad” if Eden Hazard leaves this summer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 28-year-old Belgian winger has been heavily associated with a move to Real Madrid, thus ending a seven-year association with the Stamford Bridge club.<\/p>\n

Hazard’s Chelsea spell: Five things to know\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Hazard joined Chelsea from Lille in 2012 for a reported fee of \u00a332m.<\/li>\n
  2. He’s gone to make 351 appearances for The Blues in all competitions, registering 108 goals and 91 assists.<\/li>\n
  3. Hazard has helped Chelsea win two Premier League titles.<\/li>\n
  4. He’s also collected three more pieces of silverware: 2013 Europa League, 2015 League Cup and 2018 FA Cup<\/li>\n
  5. This season’s Europa League final against Arsenal could be his final game for the club.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This speculation means the forthcoming Europa League final against Arsenal in Baku on May 29 could be Hazard’s final game for the club.<\/p>\n

    Since joining from Lille in 2012, when he had the pick of many clubs, Hazard has gone on to become a modern Premier League and Chelsea great. He’s been pivotal in both of the Blues’ last two championship wins under Jose Mourinho (2014\/15) and then Antonio Conte (2016\/17).<\/p>\n

    In those seasons, he scored 14 and 16 goals respectively. However, in the season just gone, he equalled that latter tally as well as creating a further 15 for his teammates despite Chelsea finishing in fourth.<\/p>\n

    If he does leave, it will be a huge loss given what he brings to the table and though he won’t be drawn into entertaining these rumours, it’s clear where teammate Willian stands.<\/p>\n
