Eden Hazard says that Chelsea's win in the Champions League final has opened the door for a move to Stamford Bridge.

Eden Hazard has admitted that Chelsea's Champions League triumph has made him think twice about his decision to move to Manchester.

The Lille playmaker had stated that he was North West-bound prior to Saturday's final at the Allianz Arena, with Manchester United and Manchester City both vying for his services.

However, the 21-year-old has now said that the Blues have catapulted themselves back into contention for his signature as they can now offer him Champions League football next season.

"I have not made my choice. Chelsea is a possibility now, yes. Chelsea will play in the Champions League next year," said the Belgian. "They are a great team with great players. Their interest has made me hesitate.

"I want it sorted out by June 2 when Belgium play England. I want to go on holiday with a clear head."

Hazard has a reported asking price of around £35m.
