Eden Hazard Contemplates Retirement as He Remains a Free Agent
Eden Hazard No Closer to Securing a New Club, Continues to Reside in Spain After Departure from Real Madrid
It has been three months since Eden Hazard last graced the pitch in a Real Madrid jersey. The former Belgian international made the decision to terminate his contract a year ahead of schedule back in June, drawing the curtain on his tumultuous four-year stint with Los Blancos.
Despite his free-agent status since then, Hazard has not yet secured a new club. According to Marca, the prospect of retirement looms large for the 32-year-old, who has reportedly declined numerous offers during the summer transfer window.
At present, Hazard continues to reside in Madrid, where he has settled with his family in the Spanish capital. Additionally, one of his sons is currently a part of the Real Madrid academy, alleviating any immediate pressure for him to relocate.
It would be a significant loss to the world of football if Hazard were to choose retirement in the coming months. His prowess on the field was undeniable before his move to Real Madrid, and while he may conclude that he has little left to prove in the sport, the possibility of his early exit is met with some regret.
