#4 Chelsea: Eden Hazard (£200,000 per week)

Chelsea v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League
Will Hazard move to Real Madrid?

Surprise, surprise!

£200,000 is considered to be a lot of money. However, when the player in question is Eden Hazard, money always falls short. Hazard has long been about as one of the best players in the Premier League. This is due to his extraordinary abilities and talent on the field.

Brought to England from Ligue 1, Hazard is on course to become a true Blues legend. He has been integral to the team’s success in the past few years and is almost irreplaceable in the team. Capable of playing as a left winger, as a false 9 and even as a central attacking midfielder, Hazard brings in a whole set of unparalleled qualities to the field.

His skills on the ball, his impeccable vision, the goal scoring touch and finesse in his game is incomparable. Ironically, for all the money that Chelsea have, Eden Hazard is paid lesser compared to other players of the same quality.

Hazard is on the level of the likes of Alexis Sanchez or Mesut Ozil. Accordingly, Chelsea need to break the bank and pay him well enough to ward off possible interest from Real Madrid. This season itself, the Belgian has scored nine goals and assisted twice in 22 appearances in the league.

More often than not, the other forwards have let the Belgian down though his efforts have been commendable. Chelsea needs to build their future around Eden Hazard. Hence, they need to prize him with ample rewards to make sure that he stays put at Stamford Bridge.
