Real Madrid will take on Chelsea in the last four of the Champions League which implies Eden Hazard will return to Stamford Bridge

Eden Hazard is “ready” to take on Chelsea in the Champions League as indicated by Zinedine Zidane.

The Real Madrid playmaker will return to Stamford Bridge for the semi-finals of the European Cup.

Eden Hazard was a star in west London prior to moving to Spain just over 18 months ago.

The Belgium international has persevered through a horrible time at the Bernabeu with injuries and lack of form hampering his ambitions.

He is again sidelined but presently closing in on a return to first team with Zidane asserting his desire to return is higher than ever.

“He is feeling better and he is ready,” he said. “He wants to be back more than anyone else.

“We have been more careful with [Dani] Carvajal and Hazard, since they are relapses.

“They are both better and that is good for the team.”

Zidane has a sparkling record in Europe having won the competition 3 times as a manager.

Thomas Tuchel will be hoping to end French manager’s record of having never lost in a two-legged European tie.

The German has guided the Blues into the final of the FA Cup having just taken over in January as his amazing start to life continues.

Last season he took PSG to within 90 minutes of Champions League magnificence and had expected a tie against the Spanish giants.

He said: overall I like not to play against teams from your same league in the Champions League as it gives more of a sensation of an European competition but that is the only thing.
