Chelsea Legend Hazard Shocks With Kakuta Revelation:
Former Chelsea star Eden Hazard has dropped a surprising bombshell, naming forgotten youngster Gael Kakuta as the most talented player he ever played with.
Despite Kakuta’s limited success at Chelsea, amassing just 16 appearances before departing in 2015, Hazard believes his raw talent was unmatched.
Hazard and Kakuta crossed paths during their youth careers in France, representing rival clubs Lille and Lens.
While Hazard recalls dominating in most matches, he admits Kakuta was a different story.
The Belgian described Kakuta as a game-changer, consistently leading Lens to victories over his Lille side.
Hazard attributes Kakuta’s limited impact at Chelsea to joining the club at a young age (16).
He feels the pressure and competition at such a large club might have been overwhelming, hindering his development.
Though Kakuta carved out a respectable career elsewhere, Hazard’s revelation reignites discussions about unfulfilled potential and the challenges young talents face at elite clubs.
