Eden Hazard and Willian tell Barcelona they are ‘open’ to move from Chelsea
Blues duo have both been linked with a summer exit after a rollercoaster couple of years under Antonio Conte
CHELSEA duo Eden Hazard and Willian have reportedly told Barcelona they are willing to move there this summer.
The duo have both been linked with Stamford Bridge exits, with Hazard hinting he is ready for a new challenge after Belgium's World Cup campaign.
And Spanish paper Sport insists the forward and team-mate Willian, 29, are pushing for a move to Barca.
Hazard, 27, is a target for Real Madrid following Cristiano Ronaldo's Juventus switch.
But Barca could try and launch their own move, potentially using flop Ousmane Dembele as a makeweight.
Willian, meanwhile, may owe Brazil team-mate Philippe Coutinho a favour after the ex-Liverpool ace got an EU passport.

La Liga teams are only allowed three Non-EU players on their books and Barca already have Yerry Mina and new arrival Arthur.
But Coutinho's switch has opened up a free spot, with Paulinho heading back to China.
Maurizio Sarri has brought in Italian playmaker Jorginho from under Manchester City's noses.
But with Thibaut Courtois also potentially leaving Stamford Bridge, the new boss' biggest focus may be keeping hold of his existing talents.
