da roleta: Manchester City are preparing a £25 million (€30m) bid for Lille playmaker Eden Hazard according to the player’s agent.
The Belgium international is one of the hottest properties in European football, after spectacular performances for club and country have thrown him into the limelight.
With a host of big European clubs chasing the attacking midfielder, including a number of English sides, the player’s representative has stated that Roberto Mancini’s men are set to up their efforts to bring him to the Etihad Stadium.
“In France, people are talking about an offer of €30m from City and that he would then be loaned back to Lille for free until June,” Marc Formeaux told Spanish newspaper AS.
“His future is with one of European football’s prestigious clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, Manchester City, AC Milan, Inter or Juventus.
“For Hazard, the president of Lille wants to receive €40m (£33.3m) while the player himself has declared that he wants to play for Madrid,” he stated.
Meanwhile one of Formeaux’s other clients is France international midfielder Yann M’Vila, and the Rennes midfielder may also be available for a price for Premier League suitors.
“Regarding M’Vila, he is valued at €20m (£16.6m) and he does not know where he wants to go,” Formeaux said.
“In Italy, they have linked him to Inter and AC Milan, but we will have to see who can pay his price and then convince him to join them,” he concluded.
Arsenal are reportedly long-term admirers of M’Vila and will be alerted to the news.
