Reigning Ligue 1 champions and ranked first in the group to the knockout stages of the Champions League, Lille could bring Hazard back in the next January market. The northern team are going to sell their best asset, Ikoné, to Fiorentina for € 15 million and need to sign a winger to mitigate their loss. The club’s president, Olivier Letang, was asked about a possible return of the Real Madrid player, a hypothesis that, although complicated, has not been ruled out.
“A return of Hazard to Lille? It is not impossible to see it here. I go to Spain if necessary. It may seem impossible. Obviously, Hazard is an incredible player with a lot of quality. Right now, he is a Real Madrid player and is under contract with Real Madrid every day ”, Olivier Letang smiled on the“ L’Équipe du Soir ”program.
Hazard is currently on Real Madrid’s transfer list for the next market. However, Lille could only undertake the operation if the player lowers his salary and if he gets a loan, since the coffers of the northern team do not have much liquidity and paying 40 million for a player whose performance remains unknown is impossible . A difficult operation, but not impossible for Lille.
