Eden Hazard has revealed he wants to follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo and reach the level of excellence that the former Real Madrid man has achieved in his career.
The 28-year-old has been setting the season alight for Chelsea this campaign and leads the club's goalscoring charts with 16 goals and has been constantly linked with Ronaldo's former club of Real Madrid.
He left the Bernabeu in the summer for Italy and Juventus and having won the Champions League three years in a row at Madrid is now aiming to do it again at the Serie A club.
