We doubt this will go down too well with a certain section of Chelsea supporters.
The Blues crashed out of the Champions League after losing 2-1 at home to Paris Saint-Germain, with the French club securing a 4-2 aggregate win.
Eden Hazard was one of the Blues’ brighter performers on the evening, but this half-time incident may play into the hands of those who have questioned his commitment to the London club all season.
The Belgian, who said in February he’d find it hard to turn down a move to the Parc des Princes, was filmed swapping shirts with PSG’s Angel di Maria at half-time.

Some will see this as nothing out of the ordinary, as plenty of players have been known to do such a thing before switching to a fresh kit for the second half, but there has already been some uproar.
Oh Jesus @Dorren06: Eden Hazard jinxed us tonight. Exchanging that shirt during half time is an act of betrayal. #CFC"
