Eden Hazard Reflects on Mourinho Clash and Dembélé
Eden Hazard opened up about his challenging relationship with José Mourinho during his tenure at Chelsea, which began in 2013. Despite their successful collaboration over two seasons, Hazard admitted that their relationship was not always smooth, recalling a significant clash in the dressing room that nearly derailed his early days at the club.
Hazard became one of Chelsea's most influential figures, winning multiple league titles before sealing a high-profile move to Real Madrid in 2019, a deal reportedly worth £150 million. However, injuries limited his appearances to 76 in Spain, despite winning two La Liga titles and a Champions League medal before his retirement in 2023.
When asked to name the most underrated midfielder he played with, Hazard mentioned his compatriot Mousa Dembélé, who played for Fulham and Tottenham and received praise from former Cottagers boss Martin Jol.
