Real Madrid have long been admirers of Eden Hazard

And Spanish outlet Diario Gol claim Madrid are willing to offer him to Chelsea to land either Thibaut Courtois or Eden Hazard.

Madrid want to sign Courtois with Keylor Navas expected to leave at the end of the season.

And the Champions League holders also retain an interest in Hazard, who has scored 11 goals for the Blues so far this campaign.

Rodriguez could be used to broker a deal for either of the Chelsea duo.

Madrid are also interested in Bayern Munich's David Alaba and could offer the playmaker to the Bundesliga side to tempt them into selling.
