Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has been discussing his future career plans in recent times.
The Belgian international has recently returned to first-team action following a substantial spell on the sidelines. He made his first start of the season against Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup third round on Wednesday, and was in inspired form. He helped the Blues to a comprehensive 6-1 win.
Hazard signed for Chelsea from Ligue 1 outfit LOSC Lille back in 2012, and has since been a key player for the Blues. There have been recent rumours suggesting that Hazard could be set for a return to France, with PSG lurking.
However, as quoted by the Express, Hazard has told French media that he is not looking to leave Chelsea just yet, and that if he does, the only Ligue 1 outfit he’d sign for would be Lille once again.
There are some big clubs, and it was an attractive league even when I played in it six years ago. Big stars want to play in Ligue 1, and that is a good thing. But if I am to return it will be to play for Lille – they are my club.
I still have a career to carve out, with a number of seasons ahead of me.
Chelsea will hope to have Hazard fully fit and available for the remainder of what promises to be an interesting season.
I am at Chelsea for the time being, and I don’t know where my career will take me in the future, but if I do go back to France it will be to play for Lille.
