REAL MADRID are plotting a summer swoop for Chelsea ace Eden Hazard, according to reports.
Zinedine Zidane was appointed Real boss yesterday following the brutal sacking of Rafa Benitez.
And the Evening Standard claim Zidane's arrival will see Madrid step up their attempts to land the out-of-sorts Hazard in the summer.
The Spanish giants are long-term admirers of Hazard, who has come in for criticism from the Stamford Bridge crowd for his role in Jose Mourinho's sacking.

Zidane is a massive fan of the Belgium international, recently backing him to get back to his best.
"I have no doubts he'll be back," the Frenchman said.
"After Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Hazard is my favourite player. It is spectacular to see him play.

"Do I see him going to Real Madrid? I love the player, that's all I will say."
Hazard, 24, joined Chelsea for a fee of £32million in June 2012, but would now command a higher fee.
The former Lille ace signed a new five-year deal with the Blues worth £200,000-a-week last year.
