Union Saint-Gilloise in talks with former Chelsea captain Eden Hazard

Union Saint-Gilloise are in talks with former Belgium captain Eden Hazard about a playing return.

The midfielder is a free agent after terminating his contract with Real Madrid a year early.

Hazard hasn't announced his retirement, but has so far resisted interest from the Middle East and the US.

AS says Union Saint-Gilloise are now in contact with the former Chelsea captain about resuming his career at home in Belgium.

Hazard has acknowledged the rumours recently, joking with a quip: "Frankly for fun it would be good, I'm coming the first week to face Anderlecht and the second against RWDM...!"
