Eden Hazard insists he did not celebrate Chelsea’s Champions League win and is keen to see Real Madrid reclaim the trophy from his former club next season.
Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Premier League champions Manchester City 1-0 in Porto on Saturday night to win football’s biggest club competition for the second time.
Chelsea knocked out Hazard’s Real Madrid in the semi-finals before winning a tight final and denying Manchester City their first Champions League trophy.
Hazard spent seven seasons at Stamford Bridge before joining Madrid in 2019 but says he did not celebrate the club’s triumph as his focus is purely on bringing trophies back to the Bernabeu.
‘Of course not, I’m a Real Madrid player so I am not happy,’ said Hazard, who won two Premier League titles with Chelsea. ‘I am just happy for a couple of friends in the team, but I hope next season it’s for Real Madrid.’
