CHELSEA have rejected a huge bid from Real Madrid on the grounds that one of their star men is not for sale.

SKY Sports have suggested that Real Madrid have offered €170 million (AU$268 million) for Hazard and €55 million (AU$87 million) for Courtois.

However, Sky Sports La Liga expert Guillem Balague believes no bid will be forthcoming from Real unless Chelsea change their mind and Hazard is given permission to leave.

“Certainly after this World Cup. I can decide if I want to stay or go, but Chelsea will make the final decision - if they want to let me go. You know my preferred destination.”
