Real Madrid have completed the signing of Chelsea star Eden Hazard for an initial £88m fee plus add-ons after a protracted period of negotiations.
The 28-year-old will be presented at the Bernabeu on June 13, subject to completing a medical.
Hazard scored 110 goals in 352 games for Chelsea but confirmed his desire to leave the club after seven years, having steered the Blues to victory in the Europe League final against Arsenal last month.
“The memories he leaves us with will not fade,” said Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia.
“He provided all who watched Chelsea play with great entertainment and many match-winning contributions, and for that we thank Eden enormously.
