Hazard hints at Spurs move

by Michelle Fortune , 14 February 2012

Eden Hazard has hinted that he could join Tottenham in the summer despite attracting the interest of Chelsea and Arsenal.


The 21-year-old has developed into one of Lille's most important players but his impressive performances for the French club have resulted in him attracting the attention of a number of big European clubs.

Arsenal and Chelsea are believed to be interested in signing him in the summer, while Real Madrid are also known to be keen on the midfielder. However, the Belgium international has hinted that he would be interested in moving to White Hart Lane.

"Maybe it will be Tottenham. It is a great English club. I said that I would go to England and there is very good players (at Spurs)," Hazard told Belgian TV station RTBF.

"I have not yet signed. This is going to happen soon".

Although he has not ruled out moving to Spain, Hazard admits he would not sign for any Spanish team other than Real Madrid or Barcelona.

"Spain is perhaps more my style of game but (if I move there) it must be to either Barcelona or Real Madrid," he added.
