Eden Hazard’s days in a Chelsea shirt appear to be numbered
Hazard’s current deal is set to expire next summer and he has been strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid.
And Melchiot believes selling him to the Spanish giants for £100million this summer would be ‘great business’ for the London club.
Speaking on Monday’s Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, the former centre-back said: “Keeping him for another year and letting him go for free? That would be bad business.

“As a fan, all along I want to keep Hazard until the last minute. But as a business it would not be a smart move to hold onto him.

“It’s great being the best player in a team, but you want to make sure you’re playing amongst players who can help you succeed and bring you to the next level.
“I’m not saying the current Chelsea players are not good… but are they good enough to keep him excited?
