According to a post on his official Instagram account on Friday October 30, 2026, Eden Hazard has stirred memories of his Chelsea years after sharing an Instagram video of himself juggling a football inside an empty Stamford Bridge.
The Belgian former forward posted the clip with the caption: “Taking a walk down memory lane… 💙” It shows him back at Chelsea’s home ground, keeping the ball under control with a series of relaxed touches as he moves across the pitch.
With no supporters in the stands, the video offers a quiet view of the stadium and a contrast to the packed matchdays Hazard experienced during his time at the club.
The short clip focuses on his close control, a hallmark of the attacking style that made him a favourite among Chelsea fans.
Hazard spent seven seasons at Stamford Bridge after joining Chelsea from Lille in 2012. He became one of the team’s leading players, helping the club win two Premier League titles, two Europa League trophies, an FA Cup and a League Cup.
His final Chelsea campaign ended with a memorable performance in the 2019 Europa League final against Arsenal. Hazard scored twice and set up another goal in a 4-1 victory before leaving for Real Madrid that summer.
The forward’s return to Stamford Bridge, even briefly, has prompted fans to recall the skill and creativity he brought to the club.
His ability to glide past defenders, change direction quickly and retain possession in tight spaces made him a defining figure in Chelsea’s attack.
The video offers no match or event context, instead capturing a simple moment at the stadium where he spent much of his peak career.
For fans, seeing the former winger back on the Stamford Bridge pitch, with a ball at his feet and the stands empty, provides a brief reminder of the years when his touch and movement routinely brought the stadium to life.
