A move to Real Madrid was supposed to hand a major boost to Eden Hazard's Ballon d'Or aspirations. However, it hasn't really gone his way so far in his time at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Belgian suffered an injury on his left thigh before Real Madrid's season opener against Celta Vigo and is yet to feature for Los Blancos this season.

Hazard hardly managed to win over new fans with his disappointing performances in pre-season. His showing up overweight also did not sit well with a lot of supporters. As such, Hazard has got a lot to prove to the fans of LaLiga what he's all about.
As for his fans from the Premier League, they know how much Hazard loves a challenge and if history is anything to go by, we are certain we'll see some terrific performances from the former Chelsea no. 10 in the upcoming months which will surely see him finish much higher on this list.
