Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic is full of praise for Eden Hazard amid talk of a move to Real Madrid.

Kovacic, on loan from Real Madrid this season, says Hazard will be an important player at any team he played for.

"Eden is a great guy, an amazing player, for every club he would be important," he said.

"For Chelsea he is the most important player but in the end it's his decision so everybody should respect his decision. It's on him now. He's had amazing years at Chelsea.

"This year was also great, let's see what he will do."
