Eden Hazard will be one of the names of the summer. While Real Madrid are continuing to work on achieving his transfer, everyone is speaking about the Belgian.
'Marca' spoke to Kepa while he was with the Spain squad and the goalkeeper did not shy away from questions over the player who is still his teammate.
"Let's wait. A lot of things are being said. I can only say that he is a great player. And on top of that, a great person. He is a guy who always contributes in the dressing room," the goalkeeper began.
Kepa highlighted the Belgian's charisma and denied that the player has already taken his departure for granted. "He is fun and relaxed. At 28, he is in a great situation both on and off the field. And you can tell. But he hasn't told us that he is going to Real Madrid. We know what the press have been saying. After winning in Baku, there were no time for anything else apart from international duty. We just said goodbye, nothing else," continued the ex-Athletic Bilbao man.
The Spanish international also spoke about how Hazard is on the field of play. "He can do all sorts. Score, assist, play as a 'false nine', go on the left, the right, he is very quick, powerful, very good in one on one situations, he's good with his back to goal... He is, for me, the best player in the Premier League," he insisted.
To conclude, the goalie ranked him among the best in the world. "I would put him in the top five in the world."
