Eden Hazard has admitted that the presence of former Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti at the Parc des Princes is tempting him to play for Paris Saint-Germain.
The Belgian forward is one of the hottest properties in world football and has been targeted by the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Inter, Manchester United and Manchester City.
PSG have always been keen too – and the capital club could now be perfectly placed to win the race for the 21-year-old’s signature in the summer following Hazard’s admission.
"Of course, PSG is a great club, and a personality like Ancelotti, he makes you want to play there", said the forward.
"We will see about it later", he added.
The Lille star also admitted he has been keeping a close eye on events in Paris, where a full scale rebuilding process is underway, which aims to make PSG one of the biggest sides in Europe.
"In the next two or three years they will be very solid, a very tough team, as the players play together for a longer time.
"This is only the start of a new era for PSG."
Hazard’s words are likely to be greeted with enthusiasm in the French capital, where sporting director Leonardo would dearly love to close a deal for the Lille man and present him as a summer signing present to Ancelotti.
