Latest Real Madrid signing, Thibaut Courtois has expressed his feelings stating that he would love for former Chelsea teammate, Eden Hazard to join him on the pay-books of Real Madrid.
The Belgium goalkeeper who was named best goalkeeper at the World Cup in Russia as Belgium claimed Bronze medal completed his move to the Spanish Capital after going AWOL at Chelsea in a bid to force through the move.
As part of the deal, World Cup finalist, Matteo Kovacic went in the opposite direction to Chelsea on a Season-Long loan.
It didn't take long for Courtois to express his desire saying Hazard is an interesting player and would be a thing of joy for him should his compatriot find his way to Madrid in the future.
Obviously, that cannot happen anytime soon, at least, not in this summer transfer window as the window has been shut in the EPL as agreed upon by league managers last season to allow players and teams concentrate on the new season rather than have distractions about transfers going on while the league has already started.
Hazard has been on the watch list of Real Madrid even before the Courtois deal came to the fore and he has also expressed what a delight it would be to appear in the colours of the European champions.
It is almost not a case of IF he'd join Real but of How soon it'd be, more of WHEN.
