Hazard: Chelsea players knew Salah was good at Basel

Hazard retired last year after being released 12 months early from his Real Madrid contract.

Asked if Liverpool ace Salah was the better player, Hazard told SportBible: "The best between Salah and me? Him, by far!

"Even when he was at Basel, he was already very good. We said to ourselves: 'wow, we have to buy him'. Then, you know, in football there are ups and downs.

"But what he did afterwards with Liverpool... Wow!"
