Eden Hazard's future could be set to become one of the sagas of the summer as the continued links with a move to Real Madrid only seem to get stronger.Having recovered from a horror show last season, the Belgian international is undoubtedly back to his best this term, notching 14 goals and five assists so far as the Blues march towards the Premier League title.Naturally, now that he is back on form, links with other clubs were always going to be a given, though only a few sides would be big, rich and prestigious enough to be able to prize him away. Real Madrid, are of course, one of those clubs.Recently, the 25-year-old admitted in an interview with France Football that he could be interested in a move to the Bernabeau in a move to the spanish capital, but has since backtracked to insist that he is happy to remain at Stamford Bridge.But the links are still there, and it has been widely claimed that Los Blancos will sanction the sale of a number of their fringe players in order to fund a move for the Chelsea man, who they allegedly see as the eventual replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo.And now, the French media seem to be looking for more fuel for the fire when they straight out asked Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema about the continued links.Speaking with news source Telefoot, the Frenchman said: “Eden Hazard is a very good player.“It could be a good recruit”See for yourself in the tweet below...

Though it's not concrete evidence that the club will move for Hazard as Benzema has decided to remain diplomatic, but it provides an insight into what the striker thinks of the former Lille man.

The move could definitely have legs, though. Recently Chelsea have been linked with their own move for Madrid striker Alvaro Morata, and should Hazard eventually decide that he wants to move on the Blues would have a big bargaining chip up their sleeve.

Morata found the net during Real's 3-2 win over Sporting Gijon this weekend, but has struggled for regular game time under Zinedine Zidane and may have to move on if he is to fulfil his enormous potential.
