Eden Hazard, who made his dream switch to Real Madrid recently, has always been vocal about his bias towards Lionel Messi and his stand on the decade-long debate between the Argentine and Cristiano Ronaldo has not changed.

The Belgian said,

"Two G.O.A.T.s (Greatest of All Time) you say? No way. There is only one G.O.A.T: Him, Lionel Messi!"

The former Chelsea superstar had played against Messi in 2018 and revealed that his sons really enjoyed watching the Barcelona captain, paying no heed to their father's underwhelming performances.

"Those two games against Barcelona were not my best memories of 2018. I was happy to play against Barcelona and Messi, but I didn’t deliver what I expected. I was disillusioned."
"My three sons were there for the home match at Stamford Bridge. The eldest is a big Messi fan - all of us are Messi fans, actually. He wanted to see Messi that day because Messi is a special player."
