Eden Hazard confirmed? Real Madrid stars drop major hint that deal is done

Real Madrid players Thibaut Courtois and Dani Carvajal have dropped the biggest hints yet that Eden Hazard's move to the Spanish giants is done.

The Chelsea winger's transfer is expected to be officially confirmed in the coming hours with his future teammates eager to confirm the news themselves.

Speaking in an interview with Marca , right-back Carvajal praised the Belgian's qualities and bravery on the ball.

“Hazard would add a lot to our attack," said the Spain international. "He is a player who wants the ball and does not hide."

Meanwhile, on social media, former Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois let something slip - and not for the first time since leaving the Premier League for a return to La Liga.

The Belgium international liked a post by a Real Madrid fan account on Hazard's imminent arrival, while reports across Spain and England claim that business has already been concluded for the winger.

Last week, club captain Sergio Ramos talked about his excitement over the signing of the Chelsea talisman.

"I consider Eden Hazard to be a really, really top player," he said in a press conference called to discuss his own future.
