Leicester City have confirmed a stunning appointment, with Eden Hazard returning to English football as the club’s new assistant head coach. The former Chelsea and Real Madrid star, who retired from professional play last year, will join Danny Röhl coaching staff at the King Power Stadium.
Hazard, who dazzled fans with his flair and creativity during his time in the Premier League, will help guide Leicester’s next generation of talent. Hazard expressed his excitement, saying, “I’m thrilled to begin this next chapter. Leicester is a club with a rich history, and I can’t wait to help Enzo and the team achieve big things.”
Leicester City’s chairman, Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, welcomed Hazard, saying, “We are delighted to have Eden on board. His experience at the top level will be invaluable as we build a new era at Leicester.”
The move will see Hazard step into his first coaching role in English football, as Leicester look to return to the Premier League’s upper echelons under Maresca’s management. Further details of the partnership are expected in the coming days.
