Real Madrid Castilla head coach Zinedine Zidane has praised Chelsea star Eden Hazard as "spectacular" and revealed that he loves to watch the Belgian play football.
Last season's PFA Player of the Year has, along with his club, endured a dramatic dip in form this season, and currently has no goals and only two assists from Chelsea's 12 Premier League appearances this term in contrast to his tally of 14 goals in 38 league matches last campaign.
Despite the winger's current barren period, Zidane maintains that Hazard is one of the best players in the world, but admits that he is not the right person to ask about whether Real would make a move for the 24-year-old.
"After [Lionel] Messi and [Cristiano] Ronaldo, Hazard is my favourite player," the Daily Mail quotes Zidane as saying. "I love watching him because he is a player who creates things and it is often spectacular to see him play.
"Do I see him going to Real Madrid? Ask someone else. I love the player and that is all. I am still a fan of Eden. Every career has its highs and lows. I have no doubts that he will be back."
Hazard started for Belgium in their 3-1 friendly international victory over Italy on Friday.
