Eden Hazard’s Uncertain Future: Family Takes Priority Over Football
Former Real Madrid superstar and still the club’s record signing, Eden Hazard, remains without a club, nearly three months after terminating his contract with Los Blancos.
While various reports suggest he has received several offers this summer, none have piqued his interest. The latest attempt to secure his services takes a family-oriented approach.
With Kylian Hazard playing for RWD Molenbeek and Thorgan Hazard representing Anderlecht, the Hazard family dreams of a reunion in Brussels after years of separation due to distance and borders. Union Saint-Gilloise has extended an offer to Eden Hazard, providing him with the opportunity to return to his native Belgium as an adult.
However, Hazard still harbors doubts about this move. Accepting the offer would require a significant salary cut to align with the Jupiler Pro League’s salary limits. More significantly, his decision hinges on his own family’s happiness. Eden, his partner, and their children are content in Madrid, which is a major factor contributing to his reluctance to return to professional football.
Should Hazard decline Union SG’s offer, it may intensify speculation that he is contemplating retirement. Clearly, and understandably, family has taken precedence over football for the 32-year-old at this juncture in his career.
