Hazard advised to join Gunners

Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye has urged in-demand Lille star Eden Hazard to make the move to Arsenal this summer.

Cabaye believes his former team-mate would be well-suited to the way the Gunners play and has advised him to turn his back on the advances of Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea in favour of a switch to the Emirates Stadium. Hazard himself has already expressed a desire to come to England in the past and the highly-rated Belgian international is now known to be seriously weighing up his options with a transfer from the French side looking inevitable in the coming months. Cabaye has seen at close quarters what the Premier League is all about this season and while stating that Spurs is a good club, he feels their north Londoners rivals are more like Lille. "Eden and England, it would go very well together," Cabaye told L'Equipe. "Tottenham is a good club even if right now, there are some troubles with the coach. Arsenal, it would be really good. "Lille is quite similar to both in terms of game or mind. After, I do not know if he is in touch with the Gunners but I think it would be the right club for him."
