Former Chelsea star Eden Hazard has indicated that Al-Nassr captain Cristiano Ronaldo is not a superior player to him when it comes to ‘pure football.’
Hazard also insisted that former Barcelona captain Lionel Messi still remains the greatest footballer.
Speaking recently with L’Equipe, Hazard said, “Individually, Messi is perhaps the only one. I loved watching the Barcelona player, less so at the end, but he is the greatest in history.
“It is impossible to take the ball away from him. Cristiano is a bigger player than me but, in terms of pure football, I honestly don’t think so. Neymar, maybe. After that, he’s no better than me.”

Hazard retired from football at the age of 32 last October.
Ronaldo and Messi are still playing at age 38 and 36, respectively.
