Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is reportedly keen on bringing Real Madrid forward Eden Hazard back to the Premier League.
The 30 year old Belgian has struggled for form and fitness since making the staggering £130million move from Chelsea in 2019 (Sky Sports).
Hazard has scored five times and provided nine assists in 53 appearances for Los Blancos – missing 58 games through injury in the same period.
According to a report from Spanish outlet El National, as cited by The Anfield Talk on Twitter, Klopp ‘wants’ the 115-cap star at Anfield.
The report claims that the German manager believes Hazard could ‘return to his best’ on Merseyside and offer an additional attacking option to the Liverpool squad.
So far this season the man with 138 direct goal contributions in 245 Premier League outings has registered just one assist in 10 fleeting appearances.

Whilst there are very few that could detract from Hazard’s trophy-laden time in England with Chelsea, those days are seemingly long gone.
Having endured a difficult 18 months in Madrid, signing the versatile attacker – described as ‘world class’ by John Terry – would be an expensive risk.
Still valued at £22.5million and under contract at the Bernabeu until 2024 (Transfermarkt), it would take a cut-price fee and low wages to make this deal make any sense to the Reds.
