In the early morning of June 4, Beijing time, La Liga giants Real Madrid officially announced that they and 32-year-old Belgian striker Hazard terminated their contract one year in advance.

Originally, Eden Hazard's contract with Real Madrid would not expire until 2024, and Eden Hazard himself wanted to stay in the team to fulfill his contract, but Real Madrid wanted him to leave. Retiring directly after leaving Real Madrid is one of the options Eden Hazard considered, but he has yet to make a decision.

So far, Hazard has only played 76 games for Real Madrid, contributing 7 goals and 10 assists, which is not even enough to make a "top ten goal collection".

What makes Real Madrid even more dissatisfied is that Hazard is currently receiving the highest salary in the team (about 15 million euros a year after tax). Because of this, after breaking La Liga and the Champions League this season, Real Madrid finally couldn't bear to give Hazard an "eviction order".

However, despite Hazard's poor performance at Real Madrid, he has won the Champions League once, the Club World Cup once, the UEFA Super Cup twice, La Liga twice, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup twice. From this point of view, even if Eden Hazard chooses to retire at the age of 32, at least in the area of club career, there are indeed no regrets.
