Hazard, who scored 36 goals for Lille from 2007-2012, will reportedly refuse to sign a new contract even if Chelsea play hardball with Real Madrid to get them to pay the desired fee of 100million.The Blues may eventually have to accept a reduced bid for Hazard or risk losing him for free next season potentially even to a Premier League rival, if they continue to reject the interest from the Spanish capital.Pepe has been on fire this season2

Pepe could be the ideal replacement for the Belgian, but Chelsea deal-makers will have to fend off interest from Arsenal, Man United and Bayern to sign him.Last month, Manchester United and Arsenal were told by Lille president Gerard Lopez they will have to pay 80million (68.7m)if they want to sign the forward in the summer.While German champions Bayern have also shown strong interest in the winger. Lille president Gerard Lopez confirmed Pepe will leave in the summer, saying: It is sure he will leave. He enters a price range that can no longer be paid.“There is a career choice to make, I think he will have the choice.
