Eden Hazard announces move to Chelsea after quitting Lille But reports in France suggest the Belgium star has agreed a five-year contract worth as much as £100,000 a week after tax. Hazard has become one of the most sought-after players in the game this season and has actively flirted with a host of European giants. Manchester United and Manchester City looked to be favourites for his signature until Chelsea's surprise European Cup triumph last weekend. Hazard admitted that was a game changer and it was telling he used the expression 'Champions League winners' to describe the Blues this evening. The announcement comes after weeks of speculation over the striker's future. Hazard and his agent have revelled in the apparent race for his signature, and earlier to day before his decision was confirmed, the 21-year-old increased speculation further by tweeting: "Good afternoon guys. I made up my mind. Meeting this afternoon. Have a good day.
