Another rumor, another target? Could this transfer ignite Arsenal’s season if it happens?
BBC Sport have reported that The Gunners are on the verge of bidding 26m for the 20-year old Belgium wonder kid.
Hazard, a distant cousin of Thomas Vermaelen was named Ligue 1 player of the season, after Lille’s league and cup double.
BBC Sport understands Wenger is a huge fan of Hazard and could make a move for the midfielder before the transfer window shuts on 31 August.
But Lille general manager Frederic Paquet told BBC Sport: “Eden will not be leaving this season.
“We are aware of interest from some of the biggest clubs in Europe but we are not prepared to sell.
