Eden Hazard said “I think this it is a goodbye” after scoring twice in Chelsea’s 4-1 win over Arsenal in Wednesday night’s Europa League final in Baku.

Hazard, 28, has been linked with a move from Chelsea to Real Madrid this summer – admitting two weeks ago he’d told the club of his intentions – and following the match he told BT Sport it was time for a “new challenge.”

“We will decide in a few days and the only target in my mind was to win this final,” Hazard said. “I have made my decision already and now I’m waiting on both clubs. I think it is a goodbye, but in football you never know.

“My dream was to play in the Premier League and I have done that for one of the biggest clubs so maybe now it is the time for a new challenge.”

If Hazard does leave this summer, he’ll do so with five titles to his credit during his seven seasons at Stamford Bridge, including two Premier League trophies, one FA Cup, one League Cup and the Europa League crown he helped Chelsea secure in Baku.

Hazard said of his team’s effort after the break: “It was good. I think both teams were playing with a bit of stress with it being a final, but when Olivier [Giroud] scored it was the beginning of a great night.

“We played well and controlled the game and I’m happy to leave this trophy with the boys. The manager said to carry on playing football at the break and today we showed this mentality.” (ESPN)
