Eden Hazard prepares to say goodbye to football
Belgian striker Eden Hazard plans to retire from football at the age of 32, ending his £400,000-a-week contract with Real Madrid early.
The 32-year-old ended his career at Real Madrid a year before his contract expired, after a poor season at the Santiago Bernabéu. After the 2022 World Cup, Hazard ended his career with the Belgium national team and began to seriously consider retirement.
According to reports from Spain, the former Chelsea star wants to stay in the capital and live with his family in Madrid. This leaves a difficult decision in front of him. He will have to look for a new club near the city or say goodbye to a career that placed him among the best in Europe before signing for Real.
