According to the Daily Express, Real Madrid are preparing a fresh £200 million offer for Chelsea star Eden Hazard.
Hazard was brought on by new boss Maurizio Sarri in the Blues’ 3-0 season opening win over Huddersfield Town on Saturday, with the forward setting up Spaniard Pedro for the third.
However, the Belgian is a major target for Spanish giants Real Madrid, who are searching for a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who left for Juventus last month.
Former Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois joined Madrid last week in a deal worth £35 million and Real are reportedly preparing to increase their original £150 million valuation for Hazard closer to the £200 million mark.
Courtois admitted he has spoken to his former club team-mate since joining Madrid and hopes to see his fellow Belgian arrive at the Bernabeu .
Despite the transfer window firmly shut in the Premier League, it remains open until the end of August in Spain, which could leave the Blues without their number 10 come September 1st.
