Hazard Tipped To Make Shock U-Turn On Retirement Decision

Hazard Tipped To Make Shock U-Turn On Retirement Decision

A coach in the Premier League has tipped Eden Hazard to make a u-turn on his surprise decision to retire at the age of 32.

The Belgian, who was a free agent after leaving Real Madrid, announced his retirement from professional football earlier this week.

Hazard starred in the Premier League with Chelsea but endured a tough three-year spell at Madrid, where he only managed to rack up 76 appearances across all competitions.

West Ham United assistant coach Kevin Nolan says he would love to have Hazard at the club but claims the Belgian could reverse his decision. 

"I would have Hazard at West Ham. If he wanted to come and try, I'd be willing. I don't know if David Moyes would be, but I would like to try it", as per Talksport.

"It's sad that at 32, he's decided to retire, because someone of his calibre could play at the highest level for many more years.

"I remember when Scholes did it. He got a phone call from Sir Alex Ferguson and said, 'Oh yeah, I'll go back.' 

"I think something like that could happen with Hazard because probably someone is willing to give him the opportunity and would say: 'Come and play with us for six months."
