Chelsea FC news: Eden Hazard will not be going to Real Madrid next season because of Monaco star Kylian Mbappe’s rise to prominence.
Chelsea FC news: Blues fans and Antonio Conte will be counting their blessings due to Kylian Mbappe’s recent form which has put Real Madrid on high alert.
There has been a £110 bid made for Monaco star Kylian Mbappe according to reports and Real Madrid are the likely suspects.
Duncan Castles of Yahoo Sport UK said that ‘informed sources’ had revealed that Monaco will receive even greater offers.
If Kylian Mbappe does move to Real Madrid for this sum, it’s unlikely they will chase Chelsea FC star Eden Hazard for his signature. Hazard, 26, has been linked to the club for a few weeks now but if recent reports are accurate then he won’t be leaving Chelsea next season.
Real Madrid will not want to splash out over £200m for two players, It’s just not going to happen.

This is great news for Chelsea FC if Mbappe goes to Real Madrid.
Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is a reported fan of Hazard and would like to bring him in as a ‘Galactico’ signing. But with Mbappe’s recent performances in the Champions league scoring against Manchester City and now scoring a fantastic brace against Borussia Dortmund, it seems Hazard might have fallen down Zidane and Perez’s transfer target list.
The 18-year-old Frenchman is being touted as the ‘next Thierry Henry’ and he’s already scoring goals like the French master such as his fantastic finish for his second goal against Dortmund where he got through on goal and curled the ball in with a majestic finesse of his right foot.
Mbappe has scored 21 goals in all competitions this season for Monaco. Let me repeat…He’s 18-years-old. His potential is astronomical and he could become the next Messi or Ronaldo. That’s why Real Madrid are now so eager to sign him.

And according to reports, Madrid would even be happy to let Mbappe go back to Monaco on loan for one more season before permanently joining the Los Blancos side in 2018.
