Hazard, 26, was outstanding for Die Fohlen scoring ten goals with ten assists in 33 games.

The Belgian international suggested last month he could be on his way to the Westfalenstadion in the summer after conversations with his fellow countryman at the club, Axel Witsel.

Hazard was after the final game of the Bundesliga season – a 2-0 home defeat to Dortmund.

He said: “ (Axel)Witsel is a player with who I speak very often.

“Next year, he will be there to help me.

“When a club like Borussia Dortmund calls you, the motivation is clear.

“It is good to have someone that I know there.

“I hope that I will adapt easily, but I don’t think there will be any issue.”

Hazard moved to Stamford Bridge with Eden in 2012.

But he never made an appearance for the Blues and after a year on loan at Borussia Park, he made the switch permanent in 2015.

A transfer fee has yet to be disclosed, but reports from Germany reckon Hazard will make the move for around £30million.
