Earlier on Monday, we covered a claim from the Netherlands that Thorgan Hazard was leaning more towards joining PSV Eindhoven than Everton.
The Toffees are trying to get a few deals over the line before the end of the transfer window, and the Belgian, seemingly on his way out from Borussia Dortmund, was meant to be one of them.
However, the fact PSV have come knocking has put a spanner in the words for Everton, as he favours a move to the Netherlands.

We covered that part, but more details have come out since, with a few reports in Germany providing a bit of information on the player’s thought process.
#BVB – Thorgan Hazard steht vor der Frage: Eindhoven (mehr spielen/weniger Gehalt) oder Dortmund (keine Einsätze/mehr Gehalt). Er hat nach @SPORT1-Infos eine Anfrage aus England abgelehnt. Entscheidung in Kürze. Mehr dazu auch heute Abend im Podcast. ⚫️🟡 https://t.co/FDUCJLteub
— Patrick Berger (@berger_pj) January 30, 2023We’ll start with Sky Germany’s Sven Westerschulze, who took to Twitter to explain that the player is ‘more likely’ to head to Eindhoven than Everton ‘because of the proximity to Dortmund, where he lives with his wife and four children’.
We also have Patrick Berger from Sport 1, who outright states that Hazard has ‘rejected a request from England’, as his decision between staying in Dortmund, where he would earn more and play less, or heading to PSV is expected to be made ‘shortly’.
Eindhoven statt Everton: Für #Hazard kommt eher ein Wechsel nach Holland als nach England in Frage – auch wegen der Nähe zu Dortmund, wo er mit seiner Frau und den vier Kindern lebt. Familie für ihn ein ganz wichtiger Faktor. Gespräche weit, Leih-Deal könnte morgen klappen #BVB
