'Chelsea would be crazy to sell Hazard for £100m' - Real Madrid must be fended off, says ex-Blues defender

Speculation continues to suggest that the Belgian will be on the move this summer, but an ex-Blue claims a transfer ban means no deal can be done

Chelsea have been told they would be “crazy” to sanction the £100 million ($131m) sale of Eden Hazard, with Robert Huth claiming an impending transfer ban means the attacker must be retained.

The Blues have been informed by FIFA that they will be barred from bringing in any new players during the next two windows.

Chelsea have appealed against that ruling, but no delay to or removal of their sanctions has been agreed.
