Eden Hazard is set to sign a new deal at Chelsea - with the Blues keen to ward off interest from Real Madrid.

Belgian winger Hazard has been offered a £300,000-a-week contract by the nervous west London club - which would make him the Premier League's highest paid star.

Hazard's current agreement is worth £220,000-a-week, and ties him to Stamford Bridge until 2020, according to the Express.

Real have been long term suitors of Hazard, while Barcelona could also be interested as they attempt to replace Paris Saint-Germain recruit Neymar.
