Eden Hazard Real Madrid

For the past decade or so there has always been this popular debate in world football.

Who is the best footballer in the world, Ronaldo or Lione Messi?

But over the past year, things have started to chances with the likes of Luka Modric and Mo Salah coming into the picture.




Ronaldo failed to win the Player of the Year this season while Lionel Messi was not even shortlisted for the award.




With both these players not getting any younger fans have started to look at other superstars for inspiration.

And the name of Eden Hazard has popped up more often than not.




Eden Hazard has been weaving magic in the Premier League for a number of seasons now and for the past couple of months, the Belgian had been tipped to join Real Madrid.

But the playmaker has chosen to stay back at Stamford Bridge and it seems that it is not helping his case.




This is because when one of Eden Hazard’s teammate was asked about the best player in the world he chose to completely ignore the Belgian.

Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger was recently asked as to who is the best player in the world to which he had a very simple yet complicated answer.




Rudiger said“Mbappe is unbelievably fast, really good. To stop him, you have to do it as a team because alone, good luck!




“But for me the best in the world is Messi, then Hazard.




And this answer from Antonio Rudiger has somewhat infuriated the Chelsea fans who feel that the defender should have stood by his teammate.

But this should not come as a huge surprise since Eden Hazard has himself stayed humble when asked this same question in the past.
