Hazard has been Chelsea's shining star this season

Eden Hazard has developed into a world-class player after joining Chelsea as a little-known youngster from French side Lille for a reported transfer fee of £32 Million in 2012.

The Belgian has lightened up the Premier League during his 6 years at Chelsea with his amazing talent, mesmerizing dribbling, pace and finishing ability. He has been influential for the Blues claiming 4 trophies including two Premier League trophies and one Europa League trophy. Hazard was named the best player in the Premier League in the 2014-2015 season after starring for Chelsea in their title-winning season.

The little Belgian has scored impressive 69 goals and set up 39 assists in 205 appearances for the Blues and has been linked with a move to the Bernabeu for quite some time. Both Hazard and Zidane have a mutual admiration as the Belgian described the French manager as his footballing idol while Zidane also revealed his admiration of the Belgian superstar.

With Chelsea's Champions League qualification in jeopardy as they sit 5th in the Premier League table, Real Madrid could easily lure Eden Hazard away from Stamford Bridge with Champions League football being a bargaining chip. Eden Hazard would bring more attacking flair to Real Madrid play a component that has been missing for Zidane's side this season.
