Michy Batshuayi's hilarious response to Chelsea fan over Eden Hazard exit to Real Madrid

Chelsea fans might be mourning the loss of Eden Hazard to Real Madrid, but they always have Michy Batshuayi to cheer them up!

Hazard's Belgian team-mate has been out on loan at Borussia Dortmund, Valencia and Crystal Palace in the last season and a half, but will be returning to the Blues this summer to try to get a spot in the first team.

With Hazard's exit to Real Madrid finally confirmed, it means the Blues will be needing to replace their star man.

However, that is going to be a challenge, and especially this summer with the transfer ban still imposed on the club.

The Blues will have Christian Pulisic coming into the squad for the 2019/20 season, a former team-mate of Batshuayi's during his short stint at Borussia Dortmund.

Batshuayi took to social media to reply to a Chelsea fan and joked that he is going to find a new player for the Blues to replace Hazard.

Batshuayi's own future is up in the air with the striker not guaranteed a spot in next season's squad for the Premier League and Champions League.

Olivier Giroud signed a new one-year deal with the Blues, while Tammy Abraham also impressed on loan in the Championship and could get his chance in pre-season.
