Ex-Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has announced his retirement from football after leaving Real Madrid at the end of last season.
Hazard, 32, joined Real from Chelsea in 2019 for £89m, but played just 54 league games for the Spanish giants.“You must listen to yourself and say stop at the right time,” said Hazard, who has been a free agent since his contract was terminated in June.
At Real Madrid, Hazard won the Champions League, a Club World Cup, a European Super Cup, two La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey and two Spanish Super Cups. But his time in Spain is widely considered disappointing – he scored just 7 goals in 76 appearances in all competitions. Hazard scored 110 goals across 352 appearances for the Blues, including the winner in the 2019 Europa League final against Arsenal in his final appearance for the club.
“I also want to thank the clubs I have played for: LOSC, Chelsea and Real Madrid; and thank the RBFA for my Belgian selection.“A special thank you to my family, my friends, my advisors and the people who have been close to me in good times and bad. After making his international debut against Luxembourg in 2008, Hazard earned 126 Belgium caps and scored 33 goals. He featured at three World Cups and two European Championships, as well as captaining the team 56 times.
