Eden Hazard has announced his retirement from football after being released by Real Madrid in the summer.
The brilliant Belgian's career was ravaged by injury for its final four years after completing his dream move to Real Madrid. Hazard managed just 76 appearances and seven goals during his time at the Bernabeu as a long list of muscle and ankle injuries severely limited his availability.
Hazard burst onto the scene at Lille and especially rose to prominence during the 2011/12 season, in which he helped fire the unlikely hopefuls to their first Ligue 1 title triumph since 1954. Countless teams were in the running to sign the exciting forward as the summer transfer window approached, with Sir Alex Ferguson even travelling to watch him in action a day before a United game.
However, the race would come to an end on May 28 with one of the most dramatic transfer announcements ever. Hazard took to Twitter to reveal he would be 'signing for the Champions League winner.' That meant Chelsea. "I had Didier Drogba on the phone, and Joe Cole told me about this club, that it was the best club for me. I was a little bit scared when I came, because Didier left immediately and if you have Didier in the team you will win a trophy.
