Chelsea football team manager Jose Mourinho has said that Belgian Eden Hazard is set to sign a new contract with the club and could go on to become one of their greatest players.
Hazard would reportedly sign a five-year contract worth around 2,00,000 pounds-a-week.
Mourinho claimed that Hazard would sign, adding that his club always told him that the situation would finish with a new contract, so he was never worried about that. He also stated that the Belgian has the potential to become a club legend, but warned that he needs to win titles, the BBC reported.
Hazard, who moved to Chelsea from Lille in 2012, won the Europa League with the club in 2013 and was voted PFA Young Player of the Year last term.
Mourinho said that he doesn’t know players who are considered legends in clubs without winning titles, so he added that the midfielder has to do that but the potential, he believes, everybody knows. (ANI)
