Eden Hazard started out strong to end up at Inter Milan. They were interested in recruiting him, and Real Madrid were excited at the possibility of getting rid of a player who contributes absolutely nothing, and receives the highest salary of the entire staff. But unfortunately for Carlo Ancelotti, who wants to lose sight of the 31-year-old winger as soon as possible, everything has remained speculation
The Italians chose to completely rule out this possibility, for several reasons. The first is that they had no intention of paying a single euro, while Florentino Pérez demanded a small monetary compensation in return, close to 15 million euros. The second is due to the demands of the Belgian star and his representative, who agreed to drop the file he currently has at the Santiago Bernabeu, but still demands a large salary
But the third, and more troubling, relates to its shape. Since Giuseppe Meazza closely followed the performance of the former Chelsea player and Lille Olympic Sporting Club during the World Cup in Qatar, I would have expected him to play well, re-evaluating himself a bit, to show that he is still very much useful crack but nothing could be further from the truth, because He did not end up as a substitute for Roberto Martínez, and was one of those selected for elimination in the group stage
Not only is Hazard light years away from his best version, but he has also shown that he is unable to play high-demand matches. This, in addition to his age and the injuries he has accumulated in recent campaigns, has made Inter forget him and focus on other options that could be more interesting. Terrible news for the increasingly pessimistic Madrid interests
At the moment, they think it is impossible to get rid of Hazard, and that what they experienced with Greth Bale or Isco will happen again recently. In other words, they won’t be able to release him until his contract is up. And that’s why there are still 18 months that might be too long
The United States, a more feasible option for Hazard
Fortunately, Santiago Bernabeu still believes there is an escape route from Hazard, and that would go through Major League Soccer. In the US, the Seven still have suitors, and while there’s no record of any confirmed proposals, they may soon receive some positive news
