Hazard was linked with moves to the MLS, Saudi Arabia, and his hometown Belgium before deciding to hang up his boots.

Speaking to Sporza, Hazard opened up on his retirement.

“There were a lot of rumours about my future, but there was never anything concrete – not even from Union (Saint-Gilloise).

 “It was great to see my name appear in connection with several clubs, and I have never played for a Belgian club, so it would have been a great end to my career.”
