Eden Hazard has confirmed his desire to stay at Chelsea next season, and has dismissed the suggestion that Paris Saint-Germain are a club he would like to play for in the future.
Hazard endured a poor 2015/16 season as a combination of injury and poor form saw last year's PFA Player of the Year score just four goals in five Premier League games.
His minimal impact on Chelsea's campaign, which was the worst defence of a top-flight title in the Premier League era, saw the Belgian regularly linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge and, particularly, to Real Madrid and PSG.
But Hazard has quashed the notion he wants to leave Chelsea for the Ligue 1 giants - or any other club - this summer, insisting he has unfinished business with the Blues.
"PSG are not part of my plans," the 25-year-old told TeleFoot. "I have a contract until 2020, I feel good here and I don't want to finish on a season like that.
"I left Lille as a boss, and I'd like to leave Chelsea as a boss, if I do leave one day. But for the time being I'm here, of course."
When then asked about how bad his 2015/16 season went, Hazard said: "Everything was complicated, it was difficult.
"Honestly, for five or six years I'd always been at my best and this was the first season where it was more difficult.
"But everyone knows that in a career there are highs and lows. For the time being, touch wood, I've only experienced the highs - except for this season, when it wasn't quite as good.
"But it was meant to happen this season. I hope it doesn't happen again next season.
