Eden Hazard is set to be officially confirmed as a Real Madrid player in the next few days.
The 28-year-old has repeatedly attempted to play down speculation over his future, but a refusal to sign an extension to his current contract has forced Chelsea into agreeing a deal with the Spanish giants.
Marca claim Hazard has turned down three separate offers, the most recent said to be worth a club-record £300,000-a-week and Real are now set to formally announce the impending arrival of a player Zinedine Zidane wants to build a new-look attack around.
The 46-year-old stood down at the end of last season shortly after masterminding an unprecedented third consecutive Champions League triumph but returned to the Bernabeu last month following the sacking of his former teammate Santiago Solari.

Zidane has been promised the funds to oversee a sizeable rebuilding job and has already given the green light to the signings of Portos Brazilian centre-half Eder Militao and his compatriot Rodrygo.
