Ahead of the Villa match today, Christian Benteke has given an interview claiming that it is Eden Hazard's "dream to play for Real Madrid" one day and he believes that his fellow Belgian international could join them in "a year or so".

You can check out the full interview here.

When Hazard signed in the summer I don't think I was the only one who had a little feeling that Real could come calling for Eden if he lives up to his billing. Now it looks like he'd be interested as well.

All I can say is that if Real do come in for Hazard in a year or so it would be because he'd have been a massive success and any transfer would require a huge sum from the Spanish club.

£80million anyone?
