Real Madrid are willing to send Gareth Bale back to London to tempt Chelsea into parting with Eden Hazard.
Real president Florentino Perez is pursuing a deal for Hazard as he recognises the need to shake-up their flagging squad after a dismal start to the season.
Okdiario’s chief pundit Eduardo Inda, speaking on El Chiringuito de Jugones, revealed Florentino is prepared to include Bale in his offer for Belgium star Hazard.
“Real Madrid is considering making a trade: Bale to Chelsea and Hazard to Real Madrid,” he said. “Hazard wants to come.

“Real Madrid is working on a player who sooner or later will come and with Chelsea for a player who they like. I think it would be Bale plus money.”
Inda also revealed Chelsea refused to do business over the summer after Florentino failed to keep to a set deadline.
Inda continued: “Hazard did not come to Real Madrid because they did not call in the month of April, as Marina (Granovskaia) had asked.”
