Eden Hazard thinks highly of Jude Bellingham. So much so he asked about the player even before the Englishman joined Real Madrid.
"Wow, what a player, ouf! I had a chance to talk with him a bit because we took the same plane to go to a Ballon d'Or gala," Hazard said on the Obione Podcast.
"I saw him playing because he was playing in Dortmund with my brother. So I watched Thorgan [Hazard] and also Bellingham playing. I was like, this guy was 18-19 years old but he was already special," Hazard added.
Bellingham already scored more goals than Hazard ever did in his four years at Real Madrid, although Hazard struggled badly with injuries during his time in Madrid.
Despite arriving at Real Madrid in his teens, Bellingham has risen to the occasion to emerge top scorer at Real Madrid this season and in La Liga as well.
