Eden Hazard Targets Messi and Ronaldo's Level

Eden Hazard

The Belgian told BBC's Football Focus that he aims to reach level of Messi and Ronaldo.

The 23-year old attacker believes they are the best in the world of football and should be what every player aims for.

"These players are the best on the planet," he said of Barcelona's Messi and Real Madrid's Ronaldo.

"They score one, two, three goals every game. It's something you've got to aim for - to go up to get to their level."

"They are obviously top, top level players."

"To get to their level, it's a case of working hard every day in training, enjoying myself and expressing myself as much as I can on the football field."

"I'd probably say I'm up there with some of the best, but we've got to realise there are lots and lots of good players in the world," he continued.

"What I would like to do is shed the adjective 'young' because that would mean I've crossed that barrier and gone one step further in my career."

Hazard joined Chelsea from Lille in 2012 for a reported £32m.
