#5 – Eden Hazard
Eden Hazard got his dream move to Real Madrid in June but that does not get him points in the Ballon d'Or rankings. The Belgian sees his ranking drop from #3 to #5 as he was not able to collect enough points in June.
Hazard was involved in two matches with Belgium and they came out 3-0 winners in both. The former Chelsea man managed to assist two goals (one in each) but did not find the back of the net.
Real Madrid have a lot of hopes riding on him and if he manages to start the season well, he will become a top contender for the trophy once again. He has had a great year so far with Chelsea, getting them into the Champions League next season and also winning the UEFA Europa League.
He will be involved in friendlies in July so his ranking might take a hit.
