Eden Hazard is one of the best players in the world and his talent has been undeniable since he made his breakout with Lille in Ligue 1 when he helped the club to an unlikely league title in 2011.

A breathtaking seven-year spell followed with Chelsea and the 28-year-old is currently starring for Real Madrid, having completed his much anticipated record-breaking transfer over the summer.

He has a younger brother Thorgan who spent many years in the shadows of his more established sibling, but is finally breaking into his own and getting recognition for his abilities.

The 26-year-old represented Lens in the French league for one year, before following his older brother to Chelsea in 2012.

He, however, did not make a single appearance for The Blues in three seasons, spending his time at Chelsea on loans to different clubs, before signing permanently for Borussia Monchengladbach in 2015.

After four seasons at Borussia-Park, Thorgan was signed by Dortmund in the summer of 2019 and he would attempt to help the North Rhine-Westphalia side in their quest for domestic glory.

On the international scene, the brothers are teammates for Belgium, with Eden acting as captain and talisman of the side and has won 106 caps for the Red Devils, scoring 36 goals while his younger brother has starred for Belgium 24 times with 4 goals scored.
