The Daily Mirror reported that the 25-year-old Belgian midfielder is considering a move to the French capital this summer if Les Parisiens will give him an offer and if he would finally decide to exit Stamford Bridge.
"It's hard to say no to PSG, as with all teams capable of winning the Champions League," Hazard disclosed when asked whether he would consider a move to PSG in the summer. "Now PSG are part of this category. And for me, winning the Champions League is the main objective."
However, he immediately implied that his desire is not set in stone by saying that "for now, I do not dwell on it".
The 5-foot-8 Belgium international has been struggling this season with the Pensioners as he remained goalless in 20 appearances in the English top flight, a sharp contrast to what he was able to previously achieve with the Fulham residents.
Last season, he scored 14 goals in 38 games en route to Chelsea capturing the 2014-2015 EPL trophy and him being receiving the Premier League Player of the Season, FWA Footballer of the Year, PFA Players' Player of the Year, Chelsea Player of the Year, and Chelsea Players' Player of the Year awards.
Despite his poor form this year, La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid has also been rumored to have high interest on the La Louvière, Belgium native aside from the French giants, as per Caught Offside.
Hazard was signed by Chelsea in July 2012 for a transfer fee of £32 million from Ligue 1 squad Lille OSC, who had been his team since he started his professional career in 2007. He also came from the same club during his youth campaign.
