(Reuters) - Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard has hailed his Belgium team mate Kevin De Bruyne as one of the best players in the world, saying that the Manchester City midfielder could create "magic" with the ball at his feet.
De Bruyne, 26, has been vital to City's dominant march to a 15-point lead at the top of the Premier League table with the attacking midfielder scoring seven goals and providing 14 assists in 28 league appearances for Pep Guardiola's side.
