Thorgan Hazard is a 25-year-old left winger who currently plays for Borussia Monchengladbach is the Bundesliga. He has also featured for Belgium's national team 21 times since making his debut back in March 2013.

Whilst he may be overshadowed by his older brother, Eden Hazard, Thorgan is still a very good footballer in his own right and has cemented himself as a first-team player in Monchengladbach's squad because of this.

He, too, was a Chelsea player at one point but ended up being sold to Monchengladbach in the summer of 2015 for just £7m, as the Blues didn't feel he had what it took to become established in their squad. Since that time, however, Hazard has made tremendous progress as a player, showcasing his maturity and cool head in virtually every game, giving his team the edge over those that can't handle the pressure.

With nine goals and 11 assists from 25 matches, Hazard is undoubtedly going to be on the radar of many clubs this summer. But due to his struggle in the Premier League, clubs over in that direction may look the other way, making his most likely destination a club in the Bundesliga.

That's where Bayern Munich can step in. They are titans of the division with a rich history to go along with it. Hazard may be worth a staggering £40m at this point, but this is pocket change for a club the size of Bayern, so we could very well see this transfer go through by the end of August.
