According to express online, HARRY REDKNAPP has urged Chelsea to do all they can to keep hold of Eden Hazard.

The Belgian playmaker has seen his form dramatically slide this term, as the Blues have made a miserable defence of their Premier League title.

Hazard has been tipped to leave in the summer and prompted speculation over his future when he admitted it would be hard to turn down a club like Paris Saint-Germain.

Redknapp suggested earlier this week that Hazard could play for pretty much any team he wishes bar Barcelona due to the formidability of their front three.

But the former Spurs manager now thinks Hazard is irreplaceable and believes Chelsea would kick themselves if they let him go just like Manchester United may have done after Angel Di Maria was sold last summer.

Harry Redknapp was quoted saying:

"Chelsea have to find a way to keep Hazard. They saw the perfect example of what could happen in Paris on Tuesday night, Manchester United decided to sell Angel di Maria after a poor season but he is now thriving at PSG — what a ball he played for their winning goal."

"Look at United’s team now. Can you seriously tell me Di Maria wouldn’t walk into that side?"

Redknapp is convinced that Hazard will prove once again he is a great player if he stays.

He added: "Chelsea must convince him he can reach that level at Stamford Bridge. He may want to go to Real Madrid, Barcelona or back to France but there will only be three or four clubs in the world who could be considered a real step up.
