Eden Hazard has finally decided on his future and announced that he will sign with the Champions League winners after all. The Belgian wonderkid has been linked with a move to Manchester City but has changed his mind after Chelsea won the Champions League.

Manchester United were also interested in signing the player but the agent financial demands were not accepted by the club.

It is believed that another important factor that made him change his mind is that Chelsea guaranteed him a starting place in the team while City didn’t.

Hazard has been awarded with the Ligue One player of the season in the last two seasons and won the championship last year with Lille.

Arsenal and Tottenham were the most interested clubs to sign the player. It looks like Tottenham will be his next destination as he announced his club that he prefers them to Arsenal.

Even if Tottenham are not sure of Champions League footbal for the next season probably Vertonghen pick them because he considered that he would have more chances of playing as a center-back.

The Belgian international is a very versatile player as he can play also as a left back or as a defensive midfielder. The transfer sum will be around €10 millions.

Arsenal will be very disappointed if this transfer will be done. Wenger is an admirer of the Belgian defender and put him on the top of the transfer list for the next season.
