Eden Hazard names the only Chelsea star he wants to play with at Real Madrid

- Eden Hazard is planning to take N'golo Kante along with him to Real Madrid

- The Belgian attacker has been tipped to move to the Santiago Bernabeu following his refusal to pen a deal with the Blues

- His current deal with the Stamford bridge side expires in the summer of 2020

Chelsea superstar Eden Hazard is reportedly planning to convince N'golo Kante and follow him to Real Madrid this summer.

The Russia 2018 bronze medal winning attacker has been linked with a switch to the Santiago Bernabeu since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo last August.

With the Belgian anointed to take over from where the Portuguese left before joining Juventus in a mega money deal.

Having failed to pen a new deal with his present Premier League club, Hazard has given Los Blancos hope of chasing him again once the summer transfer opens later this year.

However, the Blues star, who has about 18 months on his current deal with the Stamford Bridge outfit wants to start a new life in Spain with Kante according to Daily Star.

The Frenchman was instrumental to Leicester City's Premier League triumph in 2016, and has also been regarded as one of the best holding midfielders in the world.

He joined Chelsea before the start of the 2016-17 season and also won the EPL title under Antonio Conte in 2017, while scooping the Premier League Player of the Year prize for his performances.

However, the arrival of new boss Maurizio Sarri has seen the Frenchman function in a new position, with Jorginho slotting into his favourite position.

And after playing for about two and a half season, Hazard knows too well what Kante can bring to a team though and is now hoping he follows him to the Spanish capital.

Speaking in the summer, Hazard said: “I play all year with Kante. He is the best in the world in his position. When he is at his best, you have a 95 per cent chance to win the game.”

But prising Kante away from Chelsea will be no easy task with the 27-year-old under contract with the west London outfit until 2023.

Kante’s stunning displays have seen him linked with a switch to Paris Saint-Germain, but he confirmed last year he was happy at Stamford Bridge.

“There was no urge to go elsewhere after the World Cup,” he said.

“There were other clubs interests but after talking to Chelsea, things were clear. The club is counting on me and I feel good. The next logical step was to continue to Chelsea.

“There were some contacts [from PSG]. But after a discussion with Chelsea I realised that the main thing was to feel good where I was. I am at Chelsea. It's good for me to stay at Chelsea.”

Legit.ng earlier reported that Eden Hazard seems to have made up his mind to leave Chelsea at the end of the season.

Since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo at the Santiago Bernabeu, Los Blancos' chiefs have been looking for a replacement in which Hazard has emerged as a target.

And according to the latest report by Marca, Eden Hazard is ready to reject any contract offers from Chelsea even though his current deal will expire in the next 18 months.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
