Eden Hazard has revealed that one of his sons is a massive Chelsea fan.

Eden Hazard is, of course, a legend at the club, spending seven successful years there. As a Chelsea player, he won multiple honours, including two Premier League titles.

The former winger has now told The Obi One Podcast that his son Leo sleeps with a Christopher Nkunku shirt on.

Nkunku joined Chelsea from RB Leipzig in a £52m deal (BBC Sport).

The forward has made nine appearances this season and scored two goals, both coming in defeats against Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Eden Hazard’s son crazy about Chelsea

Hazard has shared just how much Leo loves Chelsea and Nkunku.

Speaking on John Obi Mikel’s podcast, he said: “My kid, my second one Leo, is a Chelsea fan but crazy. He’s sleeping with an Nkunku shirt now! He’s just waiting for Nkunku to come back on the pitch.”

Chelsea yet to see the best of Christopher Nkunku

It is easy to understand why a Chelsea supporter would want an Nkunku shirt. The 26-year-old is an exciting forward who scores goals.

During his time at Leipzig, he netted 70 times in 172 games for the German club.

Simply put, Nkunku is quite a prolific attacker, though Chelsea have been unable to really utilise his goalscoring ability yet.

The France international has spent a lot of time on the sidelines since arriving at Stamford Bridge because of injury. And after how Raheem Sterling, Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer performed in the 1-1 draw with Manchester City over the weekend, he is now going to have to fight to get into Mauricio Pochettino‘s team.

A player of his ability, though, you would expect Nkunku to eventually become a regular starter at Chelsea. It is just taking him a bit of time because of injuries. We may not, then, see the best of the former Leipzig man until next term.
