Chelsea star Eden Hazard is well on his way to scaling similar heights as Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, according to former Blues defender Paulo Ferreira.
Hazard has been instrumental in a season that has delivered a League Cup and promises a Premier League title, with Jose Mourinho's side seven points clear at the summit.
The 24-year-old is heavily expected to scoop PFA Player of the Year award, and Ferrira says that the Belgian schemer is not far away from the Ballon d'Or holder's standard.
"They are different players in my opinion but if he keeps doing like he's doing he has a good chance to reach that level as well," Ferreira told talkSPORT.
"I'm very pleased to have a player like him. This is the type of player you need in the squad, doing very well in every game and helping the team.
"He's a talented player and he can decide games."
Chelsea host Manchester United at Stamford Bridge this evening hoping to move one step closer to the title.
