Hazard says he would understand if Petr Cech left Chelsea this summer.
Cech has started just four Premier League games this season and admitted
this week he would not put up with another season as understudy to Thibaut
Courtois.
The Czech Republic goalkeeper has won 12 major honours in more than a decade
at Chelsea and, at 32, has been linked with Premier League rivals including
Liverpool and Arsenal.
And Hazard told
Sky Sports News HQ he would look for a move in
similar circumstances.
"Thibaut and Petr are both very good, and when you are on the bench of
course you want to play," he said.
"He knows he has the quality to play at a good club, and of course if I'm a
good player and I'm on the bench I want to leave - this is football."
Hazard was speaking from Belgium's training camp, where Manchester City
captain Vincent Kompany is also part of the national squad.
The pair have spoken about a title race that currently sees leaders Chelsea
six points clear of champions City with a game in hand.
That advantage is "not enough", according to Hazard, who won his first
domestic trophy in England earlier this month when Chelsea beat Tottenham in
the League Cup final.
"I say to him (Kompany) 'we have to win'. Last season was Man City's, and I
came to England to win trophies. This is a good opportunity to win a cup and
the league."
