Real Madrid

No points for originality for the first team on this list. Los Blancos have been strongly rumored to hold an interest in Hazard for quite some time. If Chelsea made him available, you can bet they’d come after him with both barrels.

Hazard is in almost every way the ideal Real Madrid player. He is a sublime attacker that can score goals with a great deal of style. He’s a megastar on a team where only superstars will do. His style of play and talent would be a huge hit in Madrid for the Spanish giants.

On the field he’d join a crowded attacking midfield, but that’s never stopped Los Blancos from purchasing an attacking player before. He would join the likes of Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and James Rodriguez to torment La Liga defenses.

If Hazard becomes available, look for Real Madrid to immediately be installed as the odds-on favorites to sign him. It’s unlikely that they’d be outbid with their financial muscle and their style of play would certainly be attractive to Hazard. They’d look to purchase the world-class attacker and figure out how to fit him into their crowded lineup later.
