Eden Hazard says he never had any intention of leaving Chelsea in favor of a move to Paris Saint-Germain.
The Belgian winger has long been the subject of intense transfer rumors linking him with a move to the French capital, but denied in a recent interview that he ever considered the switch.
"Personally, there has never been anything with PSG," Hazard told French outlet Telefoot. "I knew from the start I wanted to stay. I don't want to move, I'm good here."
The 24-year-old, already one of the most electrifying wingers on the planet, brokered a new deal with the Blues last week that extends his contract through the 2020 season.
