I’m sure if he wanted to come and trial we’d, I mean, I’d certainly be willing to. I don’t know about the gaffer [David Moyes]. But I’d certainly want to trial him!”
While Hazard may not pursue a career in management, he is set to return to the pitch soon for the Varietes Club de France charity match on October 18 at the Stade de L’Epopee in Calais.
