‘Would guarantee Hazard staying for years’ - Chelsea fans desperate for 45-year-old to join

The Chelsea fans in the Transfer Tavern are still waiting for their side’s managerial situation to become clearer. The Blues are already behind many of their rivals in the Premier League, as proven by their poor form last term, and the longer this process takes, the further behind they will fall.

That’s the last thing they need, of course, and so a quick solution is being called for by our resident Blues.

Unfortunately, though, with every passing hour, it seems as though the club are extending their search, with no conclusion yet in sight.

However, perhaps a recent development could get them to move more quickly.

Zinedine Zidane announced on Thursday that he would be leaving Real Madrid. He, of course, won the Champions League earlier this year for the third successive season.

It’s a move that would certainly turn heads, and it’s one that the Chelsea fans online are desperate to see happen.

Chelsea fans have been taking to Twitter to discuss the news, and there is one overarching message – bring him to Stamford Bridge!

Of course, it would be a huge surprise to see him in the Premier League, particularly at Stamford Bridge, but stranger things have happened in football.

Eden Hazard has made no secret of his love for Zidane in the past (RTL via Sky Sports), and so that’s certainly something for Chelsea to consider.

Take a look at what they’ve had to say below…

Can't see Zidane taking over at Chelsea (or anywhere else) for next season, but we'd be mad not to try since it would guarantee Hazard staying for years. #CFC

This may have got very interesting. Zidane leaves Madrid, Sarri release clause is still be negotiated. Certainly wouldn’t mind seeing him arrive at Stamford Bridge, should secure Hazard’s Chelsea future. #CFC

Would you take Zidane? #CFC

I would and it’s a sort of appointment Chelsea would make considering we like a high profile CV

You will never get a better opportunity to get Zidane. All other big teams have already sorted their new manager. #CFC

Chelsea should be going after Zidane now. #actfast #CFC

Go get him @ChelseaFC see what he can do in the premier league. Wishful thinking but would keep Hazard happy . He’ll likely do a Pep & take a year off #CFC #Zidane #RealMadrid https://t.co/0u3Pk2glK1
