I can't wait to get started! Hazard seals £32m Chelsea switch... and takes dig at rivals United

Pedigree: Hazard was the two time French player of the year at Lille

‘At 21, Real Madrid or Barcelona would have been more difficult for me. If I play well enough at Chelsea I could win my place in the starting team and my priority is to play.’

He also told Chelsea's website:  'I'm delighted to finally arrive here, it's a wonderful club and I can't wait to get started.'

The club added: 'Chelsea Football Club are delighted to announce we have agreed terms with Lille for the transfer of Eden Hazard.

'The 21-year-old Belgian international has agreed personal terms with the club and [on Monday] passed a medical examination. He will join the club in July when the players return for pre-season training.'
