Ranking The Best Football Transfers In Europe During Summer 2019/20

2. Eden Hazard - Real Madrid

Real Madrid have spent a lot of money revamping their squad this season, but the crown jewel of their transfer window is Eden Hazard. The former Chelsea man has been one of the best players in England since he arrived from Lille in 2012 and will hope to continue that form in La Liga.

A goal scoring winger, with incredible dribbling skills and balance, Hazard has consistently destroyed teams in the Premier League and Champions League throughout his career. Not only has he done the job at club level, but he's also excelled on the international stage at the forefront of an extremely young and talented Belgium squad.

While that's a fine reason as to why Real Madrid would spend €100 million, it's not the most important one. The Spanish giants had a poor showing last season, which directly coincided with the departure of their top scorer of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Whether or not he can fill the hole that the Portugal legend left remains to be seen. However, if anyone can do it and also please the Real Madrid fans in the process, Hazard can.
