Chelsea meets Hazard terms, just to stay

Chelsea has been waiting for more than a year for the Belgian star to sign in the new 300 thousand pounds contract or 340,000 euros a week.

But now they are willing to go much higher after its impressive start in the new season, where they are successfully leading Chelsea to the head of the table with its goals and assistance.

They want to re-open the talks before Christmas and are ready to go up to 350,000 pounds a week if Hazard is to sign for the next four or five years, amounting to about 21m euros a year.

Hazard who has the current contract in 18 months currently earns 200 thousand pounds or 226 thousand euros a week and has fallen below the list of the highest-paid Premier League players.

The new deal would put him in front of Paul Pogbas, who pays 290 thousand pounds, or about 330,000 euros a week to Manchester Unitedi and Mesut Ozil of Arsenal, who earns 306 thousand pounds or about 350 thousand euros a week.

The Belgian star's new contract would eclipse even the most paid Premier League player, Alexis Sanchez, whose basic salary at Old Trafford is 315 thousand pounds, or 356 thousand euros a week.
