Arsene Wenger is ready to fight Chelsea for £30million-rated Eden Hazard.

Lille winger Hazard has been watched more than 20 times by the Blues.

But now Arsenal boss Wenger has stepped in to declare his interest in the 21-year-old Belgian star.

Wenger said: “I like Eden Hazard a lot, and for many reasons.

“His creative ability, his talent for unbalancing opponents, his vision of the game, and his consummate skill in making the final pass all make him an in-demand player.

“Hazard has what it takes to play for a top-level club, and Arsenal are a top-level club.”
