Eden Hazard's departure to Real Madrid saw him leave a parting message to his team-mates on WhatsApp.
The Belgian superstar sealed his long-awaited move to Real Madrid earlier this month and was officially presented as a Los Blancos player at the Bernabeu.
His parting act on the field was to lead the Blues to Europa League glory against Arsenal in Baku before officially putting pen to paper with the La Liga giants.
But former team-mate Emerson Palmieri admits he couldn't quite believe their star man was gone until he left their WhatsApp group with a heartfelt parting message.
He revealed there has been no activity in the group since as players enjoy their downtime before returning to London for pre-season.
Palmieri told ESPN Brazil : "On the WhatsApp group, the last move there was Hazard’s farewell.
"He said goodbye to the boys and such, since then, we don’t know anything else. It’s weird.
"He sent a ‘thank you, I love you guys’, and then it showed ‘Eden Hazard left the group’.
"I said damn, he really left."
