10 most valuable football players in the world right now

#8 Eden Hazard - £95 million

Chelsea v Huddersfield - Premier League — Eden Hazard has arguably been Chelsea's best player this season

Eden Hazard, like Chelsea this season, has not been at his best. However, the Belgian superstar has shown glimpses of his full capabilities. Having scored 16 goals and assisted a further 7 in the season so far, Chelsea will be hoping that their 27-year-old star fires on all cylinders during the FA Cup final against Manchester United.

Undoubtedly Chelsea's most potent attacking threat, Conte has used his star man in a variety of positions ranging from left wing, attacking midfielder and even as a false 9. Extremely skilled and blessed with electric pace, Hazard will be itching to get back to the form he showed last year.

In a season when he and his team have not been at their best, Hazard's market value still remains among the top 10 in the world which shows just how skilled and talented the 27-year-old superstar actually is.
