Eden Hazard is surely set to move to Real Madrid in the January transfer window, with the reports suggesting that personal terms between the player and the club have already been agreed upon.

The latest report, this time from radio station Onda Cero (via Daily Star) has claimed that the Madrid could tempt Chelsea to sell their star man by offering two of their players - Isco, and another midfielder, Mateo Kovačić, with the latter on loan to Chelsea from Madrid.

Meanwhile, Eden Hazard's younger brother, Thorgan Hazard - who also represented Chelsea previously and currently plays for German club Borussia Mönchengladbach, has been on fire in the Bundesliga.

And it seems that clubs across Europe are interested in the signature of Thorgan, who has scored 9 goals and assisted 6 in the Bundesliga, and will most likely move from Mönchengladbach soon.

Calciomercato are reporting that a host of clubs, including Liverpool, AS Roma, and Atletico Madrid are interested in Hazard's signature. The Belgian's contract with the German club expires in 2020, and the report suggests that he does not want to extend his contract at the club. He could be available for around €35m.
