Chelsea's Eden Hazard is the best dribbler in Europe's top five leagues, superior to Neymar and Lionel Messi, according to the latest research by the CIES Football Observatory.
The Belgian star came out on top when calculations were made using a formula that multiplied the average number of dribbles per game with the percentage of successful ones.
According to the data, Hazard averages 6.4 successful dribbles per 90 minutes in Premier League fixture, with 75 per cent of his dribbles ending with a successful outcome such as a pass to a team-mate, a shot or a goal.
