Eden Hazard confirms Chelsea talks over new contract

Eden Hazard confirms that he is in talks with Chelsea about signing a new contract at the club.

Eden Hazard has reiterated that he wants to stay at Chelsea by confirming that he is in talks with the club over a new contract.

The 23-year-old is believed to be a target for French champions Paris Saint-Germain, who are said to have been rebuffed in their efforts to sign the Belgium international last summer.

However, Hazard, who joined the Blues from Lille in 2012, has insisted that he will commit his future to the West London outfit.

"I am staying at Chelsea 100% sure," Hazard told Le Derniere Heure. "Of course in football you never know, but I am under contract with Chelsea and I want to stay there. And I am in discussions with Chelsea for a new contract.

"It is only the beginning of the talks right now, so we have got time but the fact that Chelsea have offered me a new deal means that they have got a lot of confidence in me that I can do a good job and that they can count on me. PSG never made any suggestions to me personally."

Hazard is currently preparing for Belgium's opening World Cup Group H clash against Algeria, which gets underway next Tuesday.
