Chelsea chiefs can relax over Barcelona Hazard link

Published on: 03 August 2017

Chelsea chiefs can rest easy over claims Eden Hazard is Barcelona's priority target to replace Neymar.

The Belgium international has been mentioned as Barca's No1 target to succeed their PSG-bound Brazilian.

However, El Mundo Deportivo says Hazard features well down on their shopping list.

Armed with €222m from Neymar's sale, Barca have made Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe their new priority. While Philippe Coutinho (Liverpool), Ousmane Dembélé (Borussia Dortmund) and Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) are also being considered.

Hazard isn't being actively discussed inside Barca, while he is still recovering from an ankle fracture.
