Drogba tells Hazard to sign a new deal at Chelsea

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has told Eden Hazard he needs to renew his contract and commit his future to the club.

Speaking to Goal about the Belgian international, the recently-retired striker encouraged Chelsea’s talisman to make a decision following the news that N’Golo Kante has signed a new long-term deal.

He has to be the next one to sign.

The Belgian is yet to commit to a new deal with Real Madrid, who have been long-term admirers, lingering in the shadows.

Hazard himself has never hidden his intention to one day play for Los Blancos, who could be set to make significant movement in the transfer market over the summer.

The loss of Cristiano Ronaldo and their struggles domestically this season has sparked suggestions that they could spend bid at the end of the campaign.

The player himself has already admitted that a January move away from Stamford Bridge will not happen, but he has refused to confirm where his future may lie beyond the summer.
