    £50 million for a one season wonder :emoticon-0118-yawn:....so that would make Kane about £150 Mill and counting.

    Can't see Arsenal selling to us. Mahrez not a bad shout. Not at 50 million of course but 30-35 perhaps.

    If we sell Hazard though, Griezmann has to be the main target. Best player in the world that is realistically gettable in my view.

    I can.
    If Sanchez were to force the issue.
    He can buy out the remainder of his contract come summer if he wanted to.
    Arsenal could face the prospect of losing him for next to nothing, keeping for one more season and losing him for ACTUALLY nothing, or selling to us for £50m.
    IF Alexis forces the issue and wants to stay in the PL.

    Hazard will look around at Chelsea and like what he's seeing these days . The Russian will look around at Chelsea and like what he is seeing these days . Hazard won't go anywhere but even if he was considering it the Russian will squash the idea with money , just my opinion .

    Exactly, what can Real Madrid offer him now that we cannot?
    Except saying "I played for Real madrid", and maybe a slightly better chance of winning the Champions League?
    He has won titles with Chelsea, both home and in Europe and is going to win more.
    If the money is right and he is happy at the club, I see no reason why he would leave.
    It's not like Ronaldo, who made it very clear in his early United career that Real Madrid was his ultimate career aspiration.

    Hate to say it but of the top spending clubs in Europe Chelsea seem to be spending it more wisely ... coupled with the manager /player connection I see Chelsea as rolling along quite nicely for next few seasons . I didn't think that at the beginning of the year .. but I do know .Edit : The biggest wrench that could be thrown in the Hazard staying ( and a lot of other players staying ) is a hard Brexit effect .

    You are right but in reality, I don't think Sanchez would turn down moves to the other top European clubs that are bound to come calling this summer. Arsenal will probably take 40 million from a Bayern rather than let us have him for say 50. Then Sanchez has to decide whether to stay in the toxic environment at Arsenal for another year or go abroad to another big club. He's already played in 3 of the top 4 European leagues so could easily see him going to France or Germany next.

    If we were the only club in for him that would be a different story but we won't be. He is far too good and with 1 year left, so many clubs will sniff a 'bargain'.

    He wont go to Barca, he has been there, he wont go to Real because he is a Barca man, plus who would he replace, Ronaldo or Bale?
    Bayern haven't made any moves, but are a possibility if they do.
    PSG, well, they are a joke, but with the mentality Sanchez has, I don't know if he would want to go there.....still it's a possibility.
    Our main advantage is that both the Spanish big boys are off the table.
    If he is happy in England, then........We just don't know what he is thinking though.

    Just have to wait and see I guess. My money would be on a move abroad this summer. But if Wenger leaves then Sanchez may give the new manager a chance.

    Atletico and the bigger Italian clubs would be options for him as well perhaps?

    If a player had to choose between Real Madrid or Chelsea, Real wins all day long.

    They also have a much better chance of winning the Champions League in my opinion, especially if Hazard were to join.

    Plus it's also another country in which Hazard can look to win titles in, he's won the Prem and Ligue 1, why not go for La Liga to add to what is an already impressive CV?

    Because he's happy and settled in London? Oh and £300,00 a week might help. <ok>

    Many players can be settled at a club but when a bigger club comes calling then they'll start packing their bags.

    Real can match and better Hazard's wage, plus Spain has more favourable tax rates.

    His kids are also settled in London. Could be a factor. Anyway, time will tell.

    They don't get much bigger than Chelsea.
