Eden Hazard's younger brother is making a name for himself and for a good reason too. The younger Hazard operates on the opposite side of the field from his brother and can be just as menacing. Thorgan has perfect balance and is extremely good in tight spaces. His ball control is impressive, as is his turn of pace.

The Belgian likes running past defenders, using his dribbling skills and speed to get the better of them. He is also quite strong, refusing to cower under pressure from the opposition. Even though he is primarily a right winger, he is equally comfortable playing down the left. The 26-year-old has been used on both flanks this season and has excelled in each role.

Thorgan has been in exceptional form so far and his calmness in front of goal has been noteworthy. He has already registered 12 goals and 9 assists from 30 appearances this season. On current form, there's only one right-winger better than him in the world right now.
