A report claims that Real Madrid believe everything is in place for Eden Hazard to join them from Chelsea once the transfer window reopens.

Real Madrid are reportedly increasingly confident of completing a big-money transfer for Chelsea forward Eden Hazard.

The Belgium international is a long-term target for Los Blancos and is widely considered to be their top target this summer.

Chelsea will reluctantly sell their star player as they know his heart is now elsewhere, but they are still holding out for a nine-figure fee, despite there being just one full season left to run on his contract.

Sky Sports News suggests that the drawn-out saga could be close to reaching a conclusion as Madrid now believe everything is in place for a move to go through.

A deal could become complicated should Chelsea be hit with a two-window ban from signing new players, though it is hoped they will have this summer to make changes to their squad before that takes effect.

Speaking earlier this year, Hazard admitted that he has already made a decision on his future after previously declaring that it is a "dream" of his to join Madrid.
