What's the story?
According to the reports from the Sun, Chelsea midfielder, Eden Hazard will stay at Chelsea only if the London club makes to Champions League next season.
In case you didn't know...
Chelsea had a disappointing Premier League last season under then manager Antonio Conte. Chelsea finished the league with fifth position last season which is a bad result with the squad they had.
Antonio Conte's Chelsea won the Premier League in 2016-17 but they were unsuccessful in repeating the same last season. Due to a shambolic performance in the league last season, Chelsea replaced Conte with Napoli's ex-boss Maurizio Sarri.
The heart of the matter
Despite starting only two games out of four for Chelsea, the Belgian midfielder has scored two goals and provided four assists. Hazard has played a pivotal role for the club since joining them in 2012.
Chelsea fans cannot imagine Hazard leaving the club as he has been their best player for the last few seasons.
Chelsea has thrived under the current manager Sarri winning all four games so far in the league. Sarri himself has expressed that Hazard is in his plans and he expects the Belgian to stay at the club.
What's next
If the London club wants to reap the benefits from Belgian midfielder for more years, they need to make sure that they finish the league in the top four positions. If they do not finish in the top four positions in the League, it will become mandatory for them to win Europa League which will provide them guaranteed entry in the Champions League next season.
Chelsea fans will hope that the club makes to the Champions League next season which will increase the chances of Hazard staying at the club.
According to the prior reports, Real Madrid is targeting Hazard as their new galactico. It will be difficult for the Belgian to reject the offer from the Madrid club who is certainly craving to play in the Champions League.
