Lille’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Eden-Hazard-c11863 has admitted that he is delighted to be linked with Manchester United and that it was a pleasure to know that such a team were looking at him as a potential target.
The twenty one year old Belgian international has been linked with a number of teams in the Premier league, with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 previously being regarded to be the favourites to land the attacker.
However, with the Red Devils boss going on to watch Hazard play, it is safe to assume that the Manchester based club are now looking towards the youngster as a potential target.
Harry Redknapp had also come forth and revealed that he would love to sign the Belgian and that the Tottenham board would be more than willing to pay over the top to land him.
Despite that fact, Hazard is more than likely to opt to move elsewhere, should so many teams actually go on and make official offers for him.
Hazard has gone on to make twenty seven appearances for Lille this season and during those appearances, he has gone on to find the back of the net on eleven occasions. However, the youngster is not a natural goal scorer and his ability to create play and get past defenders with ease is what really sets him apart.
The Belgian has been hailed as one of the best players that the Ligue 1 has to offer and the way he has been playing, he could win the award of being the best Ligue 1 player at the end of the season.
A very delighted Hazard, when talking about the fact that United were actually interested in him is quoted to have said: “Of course [United interest me], this is a club that excites everyone, but for now my focus is on Lille.”
“But yes, it is a pleasure to be watched by one of the best coaches in the world, if not the best.”
With so many teams looking to land the player, it is going to be a wait till the end of the current season to see just what club Hazard decides to join.
