Eden Hazard is a free agent after terminating his contract with Real Madrid early, so Serie A sides including Roma, Juventus and Milan are interested.
The Belgium international only recently turned 32, but his last few years have been badly affected by injury problems.
It is because of this that Real Madrid preferred to negotiate an early termination of the contract that was due to expire in June 2024.

Hazard is now a free agent and The Athletic report that retirement is one of the options he is considering this summer, but Serie A could be an intriguing opportunity.
Milan and Juventus had been linked with a move for Eden Hazard in the past, though he would need to take a significant pay cut.
Roma also have to be an alternative with Jose Mourinho at the helm, seeing as Hazard worked with the coach at Chelsea.
The Giallorossi must remain within Financial Fair Play parameters and are looking at several free agents.
