Eden Hazard reveals when he will make decision on future after Chelsea legend claim

Eden Hazard has conceded that he still has a decision to make over his future, contradicting earlier comments which suggested he wanted to stay at Chelsea.

As noted by Sky Sports, the Belgian international claimed after the win over Watford that he wanted to join the likes of Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba in being regarded as a Blues legend.

That suggested that he had every intention of remaining at Stamford Bridge and to add to his tally of 101 goals for the club, as he continues to impress under Maurizio Sarri this season.

Hazard has scored 12 goals and provided nine assists in 22 games so far this year, and so clearly things are going well for the 27-year-old, albeit Chelsea are merely pushing for a top-four finish.
