Eden Hazard joined European giants Real Madrid after spending seven years at the Chelsea football club. Real Madrid sealed the deal for Hazard after spending a whopping sum of $113 million. The Belgian winger scored 85 goals in the 245 appearances he made for Chelsea. Hazard has featured in a total of seven games in LaLiga this season and has only managed to find the net once. However, his poor start at the Los Blancos does not seem to bother the superstar as he sounds motivated to find his mojo back at his new club.
