Hazard 'in seventh heaven' playing under Zidane at Real Madrid

Eden Hazard learned a lot from former coaches Antonio Conte and Maurizio Sarri but revealed he is in "seventh heaven" at playing under his footballing idol Zinedine Zidane.

The close-season signing from Chelsea scored his first goal for Los Blancos in their 1-0 friendly win against Salzburg on Wednesday and will hope to be involved again against Roma on Sunday.

Madrid get their La Liga season underway against Celta Vigo a week later and Hazard underlined his positive mental state ahead of the campaign with words of high praise for his coach.
