Transfer News: Chelsea's Hazard boost, Arsenal plot moves, Man Utd eye Barcelona defender
Eden Hazard has hinted he wants to stay at Chelsea for the long run
NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you the latest transfer news.
 
Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has expressed his desire to keep winning trophies at Stamford Bridge beyond this season.
Hazard, 24, has been linked with Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain during Chelsea's difficult start to the season.
But Hazard, double player of the year last season, has seemingly committed himself to the cause for the long-run.
 
“I don't have a problem with him (Jose Mourinho),” said Hazard. 
“I heard a lot of things about this, but no. Everything is good with him. He is the best manager. 
"He is the best manager for Chelsea and we hope we can win a lot of trophies together. 
"Maybe not this season because it will be difficult, but next season and on.”
 
Arsene Wenger has revealed he "will do what's needed" in the January transfer market after losing Francis Coqeulin and Mikel Arteta to injury.
Both were substituted against West Brom on Saturday and the French midfielder is set for a long spell on the sidelines.
Arteta, meanwhile, is only expected to be out for a short period.

Francis Coquelin looks set to miss a few months of action of damaging ligaments against West Brom
Wenger said: "Coquelin and Arteta are out. Arteta is short-term and Coquelin is longer. 
"How big the damage is we don’t know but we will know for certain this [Monday] afternoon. 
"Everyone from Saturday's game is available and Ramsey is available.
"I’m a bit cautious as we have had so many bad surprises on the scans… but the team for the next few months will be without Coquelin."
And on the transfer window he added: “I’ll do what’s needed in January even though in January it is not an ideal transfer market."
 
Manchester United could move for Barcelona defender Marc Bartra in January, according to reports in Spain.
Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo report Louis van Gaal is considering a move with Luke Shaw still facing most of the season on the sidelines.
Van Gaal is also seemingly worried with Phil Jones' continued injury issues.
The former Blackburn man was taken off in the win over Watford on Saturday and has struggled with fitness ever since arriving at Old Trafford.
Bartra, a centre-back, would compete with Daley Blind, Marcos Rojo, Jones and Paddy McNair for a slot alongside Chris Smalling, who has excelled this season.
