Despite Eden Hazard being acclaimed by some as Chelsea's all time best player, the Belgian star has been ranked fourth as voted by fans.

According to a survey by Ranker, Frank Lampard leads the way, with Didier Drogba and John Terry completing the top three podium.

Petr Cech, Gianfranco Zola, Claude Makelele, N'Golo Kante, Ashley Cole and Michael Essien also made the top ten list.

The ranking comes just a day after Hazard sealed a sensational summer move to Real Madrid, ending his seven-year stay at Stamford Bridge.

The transfer ended months of speculation surrounding the future of the Belgian playmaker at the west London club.

His imminent departure came to light after guiding the Blues to Europa League glory in Baku, Azerbaijan.

Hazard netted a brace against Arsenal as Maurizio Sarri's men marched to a 4-1 comfortable win to lift the title.

It was at the time when the former Lille star hinted at a possible summer exit.

He is now set to be part of Zinedine Zidane's rebuilding of Real Madrid after a difficult campaign in the just concluded 2018/19 campaign that saw the La Liga giants go without a trophy.
