Wednesday Transfer News: Done Deals, Mourinho Wants Hazard Reunion, Arsenal Star Wants Chelsea Return
Mourinho Wants Hazard Reunion
Roma manager Jose Mourinho is reportedly plotting a summer reunion with former Chelsea star Eden Hazard. The Portuguese boss coached the Belgian international during his second spell at Stamford Bridge between 2013 and 2015.
Hazard has had a frustrating time with Real Madrid since he left the Blues in 2019 and has been hampered with several injuries.
Arsenal Star Wants Chelsea Return
Willian desires a Chelsea return as his brief stint at Arsenal already appears to be coming to an end, according to Sky Sports. The Brazilian has also been connected to Inter Miami of MLS, but joining the Blues would present a greater opportunity to play on big stages.
However, Thomas Tuchel's attacking options are plentiful and the 32-year-old could struggle to find regular playing time over the likes of Christian Pulisic, Hakim Ziyech, Kai Havertz and Mason Mount, among others.
