Eden Hazard: Hot property but is expected to see out the season in France

Sky Bet

Lille have reiterated that they have no intention of selling Eden Hazard during the winter transfer window, despite receiving a number of offers.

The Belgian starlet remains one of Europe's hottest properties, with the biggest clubs on the continent falling over themselves to secure his signature.

Lille have managed to fend off the interest so far, and they are confident they can keep the 21-year-old in France until at least the end of the season.

They will be prepared to discuss a possible transfer in the summer, but are adamant that no bids from Italy, England and Spain will be considered during the January window.

Offers

"We have received some very interesting propositions for Hazard, but the player will stay with us until at least the end of the season," academy director Jean-Michel Vandamme told calciomercato.com.

"He certainly won't leave until then. Then, if we can find someone willing to make an appropriate offer, we will look to reach an agreement.

"Interest from Inter Milan? There are clubs in all of the major European leagues that want him.

"His price? I think a player like Hazard is worth at least €40million (£33m)."
