Eden Hazard rubbishes PSG rumors: 'I want to grow' at Chelsea
As seems to be customary once every few months, Eden Hazard is once again being linked with a move to French side Paris Saint-Germain.
Despite the apparent renewed interest from the defending Ligue 1 champions, the Belgian star says he is happy at Chelsea and adds that even if he did return to France, it would not be with PSG.
"When I left Lille, I wanted to leave France, so I couldn't have signed for PSG," Hazard told Canal+. "Every year I'm the priority of PSG. But I'm at Chelsea and this is where I want to grow. This is the most important.
"Never say never, but if I came back to Ligue 1, it would be with Lille, the team I support and I still love.
"Today, Paris is in the same world as Chelsea, Real Madrid and Bayern [Munich], but if they want to be part of the best, they must win the Champions League."
