Chelsea play-maker Eden Hazard has named the least intelligent player he has ever played alongside, surprisingly, the 25-year-old named his teammate, Diego Costa.
Hazard, who unarguably is Chelsea’s best player at the moment, made the controversial but humorous statement in an interview with the Mirror at a Topps Match Attax event.
When questioned about who was the least intelligent, Hazard replied: “It’s difficult…The least intelligent is Diego Costa.”
Hazard also named him the “loudest” player in the dressing room.
The Belgian has made a name for himself off the field as one of the funniest and most witty players in the Chelsea squad.
It is no surprise therefore that he participated in a challenge that involved naming the fastest, laziest as well as slowest footballers that he has played alongside in his entire career.
It was gathered that Hazard also went on to name the least intelligent as well as craziest players he has had the chance to work with.
Hazard could be forgiven for naming Costa as the least intelligent player he had ever played alongside considering Costa’s antics on the football pitch. Costa is known to get into constant arguments with players and officials on the pitch.
Let’s hope that the Spaniard who doesn’t always takes things lightly, sees the funny side this time.
When asked who he thought the most intelligent player was on the pitch, the Belgian replied instantly, “”Me – only on the pitch!”
