Chelsea winger Eden Hazard might reportedly quit boss Jose Mourinho's squad for Barcelona.
Media reports have revealed that the Spanish league side is keeping a close eye on Hazard's situation at Chelsea, as Pellegrini left out the winger from the squad's starting line-up for their 0-0 draw against Norwich City.
According to Metro.co.uk, Mourinho had claimed after the Chelsea's 0-0 draw against Norwich that he had not been willing to sacrifice himself for the team.
Mourinho's comments came after Chelsea's Champions League exit to Atletico Madrid, when Hazard criticized the team's tactics, despite being partly responsible for two goals in the 3-1 defeat.
Media reports have now claimed that the Belgium international could be put on sale at Chelsea's summer transfer window, despite being their player of the season, and Barca, Real Madrid and Paris Saint German are speculated to be closely monitoring the situation at the club.
Media reports have also claimed that Hazard has indicated to sources close to him that he would be open to such a switch.
