Chelsea legend, Eden Hazard has come out to name a Chelsea flop as the most talented player he has ever called a team-mate. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Gael Kakuta is by far the best talent he played with during his football career, and he has played alongside footballers like Modric, Benzema, Lampard, Mata and De Bruyne.
Hazard added that Gael just made the move to Chelsea too early, and that made his career go the way it did.
His words, “In Real Madrid I play with the best player[s] in the world. For me [Luka] Modric, [Karim] Benzema, they are top top of the list. When you say Kevin De Bruyne, he’s top on the list, when you say [Frank] Lampard he’s top of the list, Juan Mata for me was top of the list.”
“I’m gonna give you one name and John knows the player. The only one I was saying “wow” was Gael Kakuta. You asked me talent. Kakuta by far number one. Talent. I mean, talent. Wow.”
On what went wrong for Kakuta, “I think now is easy to say but I think it went a bit too early [to] Chelsea. He was 16 when he when he when he left France for Chelsea, you know? And that step at 16 is a huge step.”
WOW.
