Chelsea midfielder Eden Azar believes that he can become the best football player in the world, protecting the colors of the Pensioners.

In the last 9 years, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have become the owners of the Golden Ball. Jose Mourinho said that Eden is playing at the same level as the Portuguese, but Azar failed the previous championship. In this season, the Belgian again began to shine and gave an occasion to talk about himself as a possible winner of the Golden Ball.

"I hope one day to win the Golden Ball" - confessed Azar Sky Sports.

"I think about this. But if I do not win - not a problem. I'm trying to have a good career - as good as possible. But I think that some other players are worthy of the Golden Ball. When Ronaldo and Messi finish their careers, the trophy can go to players like Neimar, Paulo Dibala or Antoine Grismann - who knows? We will see. I do not think too much about it ".

"If I play well next season, win the Champions League with Chelsea and the world championship with Belgium, then why not?

" In the last 10 years, the trophy winners have played in Spain (Kaka won a prize for playing in Milan - note. ), But it does not mean anything. If someone plays better in England, then he will get the trophy ".

Today, Chelsea have to play on the road against West Brom. In the event of victory, Azar, along with the Retired will be the champion of England for the second time in 3 years.
