Eden Hazard has dropped another hint that he will resist interest from Real Madrid and stay at Chelsea.

The Belgian star is considered to be the club’s No1 target with the Liga giants prepared to pay £100million to bring him to Spain.

Chelsea have no interest in selling Hazard – especially whilst negotiating a new contract with manager Antonio Conte – while the player himself moved to commit his future to club last month.

But when he was interviewed by the Belgian press after Saturday’s surprise defeat to Crystal Palace, the topic of Real Madrid quickly entered the discussion.

Quizzed on his future by Belgian broadcaster Play Sports, he replied: "There is nothing to say [on my future]. I take it game by game. I try to play as much as possible. That's it."

But when he was pushed again, Hazard laughed: "Why do you want to put me in s**t?"

"No, I am very well here. I have stuff to finish this year. I have a contract until 2020. Voila, for now I'm here."
