Breaking News Real Madrid Are Finally Ready To Sign Two More Chelsea Players Aside Eden Hazard Before The Transfer Deadline

Maurizio Sarri has taken six points from his opening two league games as Chelsea manager.

The Italian's impact has been immediately obvious, with the Blues playing some quick-tempo football and putting three past both Huddersfield and Arsenal in the process.

Sarri has not made wholesale changes, though Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic, Rob Green, and of course the world's most expensive goalkeeper, Kepa, all arrived in the summer.

Thibaut Courtois was the most high-profile departure as the goalkeeper left for Real Madrid.

However, there's no doubt that the 2016/17 champions' main aim will have been keeping hold of Eden Hazard. So far, so good on that front.

The major concern is that the La Liga transfer market is still open, which means a move to Madrid cannot be discounted yet.

If it did transpire, Chelsea would not be able to sign a replacement because Premier League clubs voted to shut the window early.

The Mirror report that Los Blancos remain keen on signing the Belgian and while they are ostensibly moving away from their 'Galactico' policy, they will try and persuade him of how big a player he would become at the Bernabeu.

Chelsea are well-prepared for this eventuality and plan to counter it by offering the playmaker £300,000-a-week.

REAL AREN'T JUST COMING FOR HAZARD 

What they have not have been expecting is Real's simultaneous move for Marcos Alonso.

The full-back was born in the Spanish capital and is also the subject of interest from Atletico Madrid.

Julen Lopetegui is concerned that his side lack any real threat down the left, something the 27-year-old has consistently displayed at Stamford Bridge.

It boils down to whether the players are adamant that they want to leave. Alonso has never hinted at a possible departure, yet the same can't be said of his team-mate.

After the 3-2 victory over Arsenal, Hazard's comments didn't exactly scream commitment, though he appeared to indicate he would be staying put for now.

"I don’t want to talk about it [my future] yet," he said, per the Telegraph.

"A lot has been said, but at the moment I’m happy. I have two years left on my contract and we’ll see what happens. Leaving this year? I won’t go."

The likes of Florentino Perez will not be deterred by that interview one bit and their approach will be all the more daunting for Chelsea if they risk losing Alonso too. 

Should Chelsea sell Alonso and Hazard if the money's right? Have your say in the comments.
