Real Madrid star Eden Hazard is interested in a move to Major League Soccer at the end of the season, according to a report.
The 31-year-old announced his retirement from international football after Belgium were knocked out of the World Cup in the group stage, but now has to consider his future at club level.
He is said to be unhappy with his lack of minutes at Real Madrid and could look to make a move next summer.
Real Madrid star Eden Hazard is interested in moving to MLS at the end of the season
As he looks to revive his career at the club, the Belgian is very interested in joining MLS, according to L’Equipe.
But he wants to wait until the end of the current LaLiga season to make the switch, rather than at the next transfer window in January.
Hazard is reportedly unwilling to move in January because he doesn’t want to turn his family upside down.
‘I have one more year and I have to show [what I can do] but it is not easy. I’m not playing, I want to play more. I am very sorry for what has happened,” Hazard said during an interview prior to the start of the World Cup.
‘In January it is impossible [to leave]because I have family and I like the city.’
He is reportedly looking to revive his career after falling out of favor at Real Madrid.
The 31-year-old has only played three LaLiga games for the Whites so far this season.
His contract at the Bernabéu expires in June 2024, but the Spanish giants are said to be willing to let the former Chelsea star leave next summer.
Hazard failed to adjust well to life in the Spanish capital after his sensational $109m move from Chelsea in 2019.
He has rarely been called up by manager Carlo Ancelotti, making just six appearances for Los Blancos so far this season.
In the run-up to the World Cup, Real Madrid played 14 LaLiga games, but Hazard played just three times for Ancelotti’s side in the Spanish top flight and failed to contribute a single goal.
Furthermore, the Belgian captain has only played 72 games in total since his arrival from Chelsea, the same number that he has missed with 16 different injury problems.
