His stay in Madrid was miserable however, with injury and form struggles meaning he was never able to justify his lofty price tag.

The forward made just 76 appearances for Madrid, scoring seven and assisting 12 times.

The forward did not complete a 90 minute game this season and appeared just six times in the league.

And according to Marca, the Belgian only has one club interested in his services – the Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS.

The Belgian would join a Vancouver team halfway through the MLS season if he were to leave this summer.

The Canadian side are currently sitting in the MLS final series places with the club in sixth.

Hazard would become the most high-profile player to ply his trade for Vancouver since local boy Alphonso Davies left in 2018.

According to reports in Canada, the Whitecaps are struggling to attract fans and have the fourth worst attendance in the MLS.
