Ruben Loftus-Cheek spoke about Eden Hazard in the context of recent links from Newcastle United.

The Belgian was a Chelsea player for a while, along with Loftus-Cheek, before moving to Real Madrid. However, a return to the Premier League may be in the cards with Newcastle.

Loftus-Cheek was a great admirer of Hazard’s character during his time at Stamford Bridge. He has nothing but positive things to say about Hazard.

WHAT HAS BEEN SAYED ABOUT HAZARD

Loftus-Cheek spoke out about his former teammate.

He was a remarkable man, I saw him in his prime and the way he played it was effortless. Loftus-Cheek stated that he remembers when he first arrived, maybe 21 years ago. I was there and he was taking players down the wing. It was a wild scene and I thought “I want that.”

FAN FAVOURITE

Hazard would be a fan favorite if he visited St James’ Park.

Newcastle fans love Hazard because he is a proactive player and looks to make things happen.

He would be a Magpies player of the year and, if given the chance to show his stuff, he’d light up Tyneside.

It remains to be seen if a move to Newcastle will be made, but he would be a star if he returned to the Premier League with United.
