Eden Hazard Admits That Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo 'Are on Another Planet'

Chelsea star Eden Hazard talked to Sky Sports ahead of their clash with Arsenal on Sunday and admitted that he aims to become the best footballer in the world some day. 

However, he did concede that two players are currently standing in his way—Barcelona's Lionel Messi and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo. 

He said when asked if he wanted to be the world's best: 

"

Messi, Ronaldo they are on another planet, but yeah why not? I try to be one of the best, so if I can be why not?

If I train every day, if I take pleasure every day, why not? I can reach another level.

(I'm) still young, but at 24 Messi had won two Ballon d'Or awards already. But I am still young and I can improve more.

"

Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane put Hazard in the same class as Ronaldo and Messi earlier in the week and Hazard admitted in the interview it was great to hear such praise.

However, he also insisted he was happy at Chelsea, stating: "I am happy here. I play with big players and the most important thing is I want to win trophies and with this club, it is possible."
