Eden Hazard drops Premier League hint

Despite reports of a transfer from Lille to Ligue 1 rivals Paris St. Germain, highly rated Belgian international winger Eden Hazard hopes that he will end up in the Premier League. Chelsea and Arsenal are the favorites to secure the talented forward's signature.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has been a massive fan of Hazard for over two years, and is believed to have submitted several offers for the Lille forward. In addition, Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas wants to sign Eden Hazard as a long term replacement for Florent Malouda, who is expected to quit Stamford Bridge shortly.


Hazard hopes that he will have the opportunity to play in the Premier League, and insists that the style of football suits his play: "I have  played inover 100 Ligue 1 matches, I'm young but I want to know anything else."

The offer of a move to Paris St Germain is tempting for Hazard, but he would prefer to move away from France. Hazard continued:  "Paris is tempting with the players there now but I prefer to go abroad.


"I think I'm heading to England, the style of play suits me there and I think it's in this league that I can learn as much. We know the great English clubs. It will be a club where I'm sure to play with a play style that suits me."
