The 27-year-old has scored two and assisted another two goals in just four league games, with the Blues aiming high under new management with Maurizio Sarri at the helm this term.Hazard's sheer pace and insane dribbling skills help him skip past defenders with ease, while he is arguably the Premier League's most clinical winger at present.Although he is yet to sign a new contract with the Blues, a move away from Stamford Bridge could fail to materialise - as he has verbally agreed to sign a new deal, should they qualify for Champions League football and show drastic improvement from last season's failures under Antonio Conte.After a lacklustre showing across England's top-flight and among Europe's elite last term, Chelsea were able to manage an FA Cup triumph - little consolation for Conte - who was sacked in July.As a result, the club's star players were heavily linked with transfers away - not least Hazard, who continues to attract interest from Champions League holders Real Madrid. First-choice goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois joined Los Blancos, while Eden and Willian have remained.Hazard does not have a lot of years left at his peak and you can understand his eagerness to finish his career with silverware in another of Europe's top leagues, such as Spain. His quality is undeniable and boasts world-class skills, so it's no surprise that supporters and critics alike expect plenty from him.
