FOOTBALL: HAZARD DISMISSES CHELSEA EXIT CLAIMS

The Belgium international has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, with PSG keen to sign the star, but he has reaffirmed his commitment to the Blues Belgium forward Eden Hazard has declared his intention to remain with Chelsea following speculation over his future.

The former Lille man has been linked with a return to France, with Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint- Germain keen to sign the 23-year-old.

Hazard and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho have regularly exchanged differences of opinion since the Portuguese's return to Stamford Bridge - specifically on Hazard's defensive work rate and the team's tactics - and PSG boss Laurent Blanc aired his admiration for the player in May.
However, last season's PFA Young Player of the Year insists he wants to remain at Stamford Bridge, adding his desire to focus on Belgium's World Cup campaign.

"For the moment, I just want to focus on the World Cup. For the moment I have a contract with Chelsea and I don't want to leave the club," he told reporters.

"My aim is to give 100 per cent on the pitch and that's it really.

Hazard scored 14 Premier League goals and chalked up a further nine assists for Chelsea in 2013-14.

SINGER; KEFEE DIAGNOSED WITH PRE- ECLAMPSIA, NEEDS A MIRACLE TO SURVIVE

According to a new report on Tribune, the chances of Kefee getting out of coma is slim as her situation not only requires
prayers for survival, but also a miracle as the musician has been diagnosed as having pre-eclampsia – pregnancy induced high blood pressure.
Six-month pregnant Kefee had embarked on a 14-hour flight to Chicago for an event but
went into coma, forcing the plane to land in Los Angeles so that she could be urgently attended to. A source told Tribune during a phone conversation:

“Kefee surely did not know that she had a high blood pressure before she embarked
on the long trip and suddenly went into coma in the air. That she is pregnant has made her situation dicey, so she will need a miracle to survive, a doctor told me”,

Meanwhile, a medical doctor in Nigeria, Dr Adeyefa, shedding more light on Kefee’s condition, said:

“Kefee is in a precarious situation because of the six months pregnancy. If the
foetus had been nine months, the doctors would have removed the baby and saved the mother and child. As it is now, not only
will the baby not survive because the carrier is in coma, Kefee may also lose her life from further complications. The chances of the mother surviving is narrow, while the kid has a narrower chance. I urge Nigerians to pray for her for a miracle because that is
what she really needs,” he added.
