Eden Hazard has told Chelsea to make statement signings this transfer summer if they want him to sign a new contract amid links with Real Madrid.
The Belgium international has only two years left on his current contract with the Blues, though is believed to have verbally agreed terms on a long-term contract that would see him become the highest paid player in Chelsea.
Hazard has now challenged Chelsea’s board to match his ambitions in this summer transfer market.
Asked about progress over a new contract, Hazard said: ‘I’m waiting for new players next season. We’ll see.
‘I want good players, because I want to win the Premier League next season.
‘Yeah, (I have to think about) a lot of things, and then we will see. That’s why I’m taking my time. It’s something big.’
Chelsea will look to end their disappointing season on a high at the weekend when they face Manchester United at Wembley, and Hazard is eager to win the FA Cup.

He continued: ‘I need two more trophies: Champions League and FA Cup. I think, to play Champions League next season is important. To win trophies also.
‘Trophies are important. FA Cup, League Cup, Premier League, Champions League. You know? And it’s more important for me, because I’ve never won this one. That’s why I want to win.’
