“No player is more important than the club” – Chelsea legend astonishingly claims Blues will go on stronger if Eden Hazard leaves

Marcel Desailly has claimed Eden Hazard should be allowed to leave Chelsea is he wishes to, as “no player is more important than the club”.

Hazard has been at the center of hot interest from La Liga giants Real Madrid, with the Spanish club ready to pay over the odds for his services.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s future at the club is waning after dismal performances this year through especially since the season began. His goals have dried up and his general contribution to play has reduced the danger the Los Blancos have against teams in the Spanish top flight.

It is reported that Real authorities are ready to bring a superstar forward to boost their attack line and Hazard is their priority target in the next transfer window, while they eye Paris Saint-Germain summer mega signing Neymar.

Chelsea fans are worried of the departure of one of their main stars and believe the prospect of losing the Belgian forward will prove disastrous for the club in the coming seasons.

However Chelsea legend Desailly claims the Premier League champions can find good enough replacement for Hazard if he leaves for Real next summer.

“We are still in the season, no player is more important than the club. Even when Drogba left, one of the great players, the spirit of the club continued. They continued to win.

We will be sad if Hazard has to go but I am sure that Roman Abramovich is still passionate about the club. He will bring in another player that can allow the club to be at the same level again.”
