He told Sky Sports: “Salah is a difficult one because Real Madrid have no mention of him as a candidate to be a Galactico. You can think there is a market in Egypt and he is a star of the Premier League - he has a lot of things to go for him - but if they get Hazard they won’t need Salah.
“It seems like they wouldn't put that much money into Salah. Hazard is desperate to come and Lewandowski is desperate to come.”
Hazard has continued to remain coy over a move to Madrid, a transfer that has long been considered more of a "when" than an "if" in footballing circles, with the Belgian winger's admiration for the club and manager Zinedine Zidane well known.
Salah himself is set to be handed a new £200,000 per week contract after a season that should see him named Player of the Year and even beat out Harry Kane for top scorer, who is yet another potential Galactico if the rumours are to be believed.
With Conte's future uncertain, and close-friend Thibaut Courtois' contract running into its last year next season, Hazard does look set to leave sooner rather than later.
After all, if you have to tell people you're happy, then you're not really happy, are you?
