Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo only players better than Eden Hazard, says Chelsea star's brother Thorgan

Eden Hazard 'has the potential to become the world's best' but is still short of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, according to the Chelsea star's brother Thorgan.

The Belgian playmaker has found his form again this season under Antonio Conte's stewardship, helping his side climb to the top of the Premier League.

Hazard has 10 Premier League goals in 23 appearances this term, including his wonder goal in the 3-1 victory over London rivals Arsenal at the weekend.

And his younger sibling Thorgan, who was at Chelsea with Hazard before leaving for Borussia Monchengladbach in 2015, says his brother is on track to joining Barcelona star Messi and Real Madrid's Ronaldo as one of the world's best players.
