Chelsea fans are planning a special tribute for Eden Hazard on Saturday evening.

The Belgian, who spent seven fruitful years at Stamford Bridge, announced his retirement from football last Monday.

The announcement came off the back of four difficult years at Real Madrid, which culminated in him leaving them over the summer.

The 32-year-old opted to retire despite receiving many offers outside Europe.

According to reports, Hazard’s banner will be shown at Stamford Bridge before the game between Chelsea and Arsenal begins.

There are also plans to observe a minute’s silence for victims of the ongoing war between Israel and Palestine, which has left many injured and dead.
