OMG: Messi Urges Barca to Sign Hazard after Mardrid Development
Barcelona
forward Lionel Messi has reportedly urged his club to seal the transfer of
Chelsea winger Eden Hazard as Real Madrid seemingly cool their interest in him.
The Belgian has long been linked with a
possible move to the Bernabeu, but Don Balon now
claim they’re focusing on other priorities in the transfer market, leading to
Messi taking an interest.
The Argentine is a big fan of Hazard and
believes he has all the attributes to fit in well at the Nou Camp, according to
Don Balon’s report.
Chelsea won’t want to lose a player as
important as Hazard, who has been at Stamford Bridge since 2012 and played a
key role in guiding the club to two Premier League titles in that time.
Barcelona, however, need some top class
additions in attack after losing Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer,
with Ousmane Dembele not getting off to the most convincing start due to injury
problems.
Luis
Suarez has also struggled for goals this season, and a player of Hazard’s skill
and intelligence in the front three could help Ernesto Valverde’s side click a
little better in the final third.
It remains to be seen how much influence Messi
can exert over the club’s moves in the transfer market, but Chelsea should
perhaps be worried by these developments.
