The Benteke saga rumbles on, after Eden Hazard – fellow compatriot and Premier League player says that “he’d be the happiest man in the world” if Benteke made a switch to Chelsea, according to Sky Sports News.
The two players are known as great friends off the pitch, but this obviously rises some speculation over the fact that there could be real interest from Chelsea.
Chelsea are said to be looking for a striker after Didier Drogba left the club on a free transfer
“I have a great relationship with [Benteke] him and would like nothing better than to play with him” he told reporters in Belgium
“Not that Aston Villa is a small club but he has already played many great games and can now play in the Champions League”
Benteke is thought to be available for around £32.5m this summer.
