Real Madrid are considering breaking the world record transfer fee to  land Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard.

The 26-year-old will be free to speak to the Spanish giants over a potential move to the Santiago Bernabeu, with the Blues already agreeing to listen to offers after this season.

The Blues will try and convince him to stay by bringing in a number of players, with Tiemoue Bakayoko, Romelu Lukaku, Alvaro Morata and James Rodriguez all Chelsea transfer targets.

But the Belgian international will have the final say on his future and it appears that he wants to make the move to Spain.

However, Antonio Conte’s side are yet to receive an offer Real for the 26-year-old and as things stand, the Blues have no intention of letting their superstar leave for any price.

It’s suggested that any successful bid for the Belgium international would need to break the £100-million mark, which will eclipse the current world-record acquisition of £89.3-million, which Manchester United paid to sign Paul Pogba from Juventus.

Hazard has been in been in fine form so far this season, having already netted 11 goals and assisted a further five from 31 appearances in all competitions.
