Benjamin Mendy: Eden Hazard is the best player I have ever seen

Man City defender Benjamin Mendy has revealed that 

former Chelsea star Eden Hazard is the best player he 

has ever seen.

Hazard joined Chelsea in 2012 and soon established 

himself as one of the top players in the Premier League, 

spending a successful seven years at Stamford Bridge.

The Belgian winger finally completed his dream move to 

Real Madrid in the summer for a gigantic £90million fee 

and although things haven't gone to plan at the 

Bernabeu just yet, he remains one of the most talented 

footballers in the game.

Mendy believes Hazard is the best he has ever seen on 

the pitch.

"Eden Hazard, the best player I have ever seen," he told 

OTRO while showing off a signed Hazard jersey.

"The skill, everything. The pace, the shots, the strength 

and he's a very good guy."

Mendy is yet to face Hazard himself, but he could get 

the chance when City play Real Madrid in the Champions 

League last-16 in February.

Another shirt that Mendy revealed was a signed 

Raheem Sterling England jersey and the Frenchman 

also revealed he has one big hope for City's star forward.

"This one, the top of the league - Raheem Sterling," he

 added while pointing out the shirt.

"He's on fire again this year. I hope he continues doing 

well like this and he keeps going, because we need him 

to score a lot."

Mendy then also pointed out his own signed City shirts 

from Cup finals and Premier League winning seasons.
