Mönchengladbach's "Borussia" club player Thorgan Hazard, the brother of Eden Hazard, is convinced that his older brother is currently among the top three footballers in the world.
Playing for London's "Chelsea" club, E. Hazard has already scored 10 goals in the "Premier" league this season, but the Belgian fans are most delighted not by the goals, but by his amazing ball control and excellent dribbling skills.
Chelsea's star player T. Hazard has no doubt that based on his current form, Eden can compete with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
"There are many who think Eden has the potential to become the best footballer in the world," Thorgan said to "Goal.com". "But at the moment we have two untouchable players - Messi and Ronaldo. So, we should wait a bit, but when both players reach a certain age, Eden will have his chance."
"He can become the best. Right now he is one of the best. I want to see him in the top three of the 'Ballon d'Or' voting. Hopefully, one day it will truly happen. I have no doubt that there are many people who, after seeing Eden play, say: 'wow, this player is fantastic'.
He is a very strong player, and with the ball Eden is incredibly fast and has everything a great player needs. I saw him play against 'Everton' and enjoyed every moment when he had the ball," T. Hazard concluded.
