'I am strong and fast... he is stronger and faster than me!': Eden Hazard names Kyle Walker as his toughest ever opponent in the Premier League

Real Madrid winger Eden Hazard has named Manchester City full-back Kyle Walker as the toughest opponent he faced in the Premier League.

Hazard enjoyed seven seasons at Chelsea between 2012 and 2019 as he made his name as one of the world's best players and helped the club lift the Premier League, FA Cup, Europa Cup, and League Cup.

Despite coming up against some of the Premier League's greatest defenders including Vincent Kompany, Virgil Van Dijk, and Rio Ferdinand, the Belgian gave a surprising answer when asked who his toughest opponent was.
