Luis Figo urges Real Madrid to sign Chelsea ace Hazard

Real Madrid hero Luis Figo believes Eden Hazard wants to leave Chelsea.

Hazard continues to be linked with Real.

When asked if he would advise Florentino Pérez to sign Hazard next summer, Figo replied: “Without any doubt.

"He's a great player, one of the biggest players in the game right now and I think he also wants to play at Real Madrid. And on top of that, he's one of the few players who isn't tied to a long-term contract."

Figo was also asked about how he sees Real Madrid's current predicament and offered the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo as a major factor which has affected the team.

"It's a year of transition so it's normal when you lose one of the most important player in football history - a player who guarantees a lot of goals and creates decisive moves. Madrid have won a lot during the past few years, but in sport you are not going to continue winning all the time."
