Hazard: I'll Only Leave Chelsea On One Condition
The Belgian was linked with a move away from Chelsea before the new season got underway, with Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly keen on the player.
However, the 25-year-old says he if he was to part ways with the club, he would have to win the Premier League once again.
"If I ever leave, it'll be after winning a championship," Hazard said to The Guardian.
"You need to go out on a high so that people remember you for the right reasons.
"I'm playing without pain now. Last year was complicated. Some people didn't believe it, but I played with [a hip] injury for a long time.
"I was never 100 per cent and when you are not completely fit it's hard to play at your best.
"But I had a good break after the Euros, a good pre-season, and was ready. Liberated, yes. It feels like that sometimes, being injury-free and if a system brings the best out of you.
"Back in March I'd spoken [to Antonio Conte] about the difficult season I'd had up to then, and what he expected of me in the year to come.
"His passion and enthusiasm for the job were obvious. I made clear I had no intention of leaving after such a poor year. I didn't want to go out like that."
