Lille general director Frederic Paquet has admitted that it is "almost a certainty" that Eden Hazard will not play for the club beyond the end of the season.
The 21-year-old has persistently been linked with a new challenge after establishing himself as one of the hottest prospects in Europe.
Hazard has on numerous occasions declared his wishes to further his career at a different club and Lille appear resigned to losing the Belgian star.
"Eden will leave at the end of the season, that is almost a certainty," Paquet told Orange Sport.
Premier League duo Chelsea and Manchester United have been credited with an interest in Hazard, while Paris Saint-Germain are also reportedly keen.
Despite previously ruling out a transfer to the Parc des Princes, Hazard hinted on Friday that he would jump at the chance to play for Carlo Ancelotti's side.
The Belgium international, who broke into Lille's first team in 2007, has a contract with the Ligue 1 champions until 2015.
