Real Madrid shift focus on Chelsea star after Mbappe snub



Real Madrid has shifted their focus on Chelsea star Eden Hazard after Kylian Mbappe decision to stay with Monaco for another season.

The Los Blancos want a galactico signing this summer and with just three weeks remaining in the transfer period, the Spanish giants want to pull all string to make a make their dream a reality.

The European champions are now back on the Hazard’s pursuit, a case that looks to have been buried as the Los Blancos has been focusing on the signing of Monaco forward since the beginning of the summer.

Real Madrid attention was diverted largely from the Chelsea forward because of the injury he sustained after the season during an international assignment with Belgium.

The forward sustained an ankle injury that will rule out for the start of the season.

Hazard was back to his brilliant best last season as Antonio Conte, he led Chelsea to the title last season with an emphatic display, Conte will be hoping the Belgian is on top form again during the coming campaign once he returns from an ankle injury.

McGarry says "The Madrid president Florentino Perez promised the fans he would deliver them another galactico.

"That galactico was Kylian Mbappe. He has turned his back on Real Madrid, Los Blancos will now turn to their second target and that is Eden Hazard.

"They have admired him a long time. He has always imagined himself in the white kit of Real Madrid.

"That will have a very interesting effect on Chelsea who has not spent anywhere near their rivals. Conte will be incredibly disappointed, to say the least."

And he had been tipped to arrive at the Bernabeu in a deal worth more than £100m this summer, which could have forced Gareth Bale out of Real Madrid.

Nigeria has selected two sites for the construction of its planned nuclear power plants, as Africa’s biggest economy tries to end decades of electricity blackouts that have blighted its growth. Russia’s state-owned Rosatom, which has been in talks with Nigeria over the nuclear plants, on Friday confirmed two sites had been selected in Africa’s most populous nation and said they would have a total of four reactors. Neither side would say where the sites were, but a source at Nigeria’s nuclear agency said the sites will be in Akwa Ibom state, in southeast Nigeria, and Kogi state, in the central northern part of the country. Nigeria, with a population of around 170 million, has installed power capacity that fluctuates between around 6,000 MW to just over 7,000 MW, according to the Transmission Company of Nigeria, with 80 percent of its power plants fired by gas. By comparison, South Africa’s capacity is almost seven times greater for a population less than a third as big. Africa’s bi
