The last few years have been rather tough for Eden Hazard.
Back in the summer of 2019, the Belgian maestro secured a mega-money transfer from Chelsea to Real Madrid, his self-confessed dream move.
But Hazard's time in the Spanish capital has been seriously blighted by injury, to the point where he's played only 54 games for Los Blancos at the time of writing.
As well as being unable to find form out on the pitch, Hazard has also seen his market value plummet over the past two-and-a-half years.
Since January 2019, no player's valuation has decreased more over on Transfermarkt than his.
It's pretty damning for Hazard and you can check out the numbers for yourself below.
25. Edinson Cavani (Manchester United) | -£44.10m
24. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal) | -£45.00m
23. Toni Kroos (Real Madrid) | -£45.00m
22. Saul Niguez (Chelsea) | -£45.00m
21. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) | -£45.00m
20. Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) | -£45.00m
19. Miralem Pjanic (Besiktas) | -£46.80m
18. David De Gea (Manchester United) | -£46.80m
17. Ivan Rakitic (Sevilla) | -£49.50m
16. Jordi Alba (Barcelona) | -£49.50m
15. Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United) | -£49.50m
14. Sergio Aguero (Barcelona) | -£54.00m
13. Isco (Real Madrid) | -£54.00m
12. Paulo Dybala (Juventus) | -£54.00m
11. Samuel Umtiti (Barcelona) | -£58.50m
10. Marcelo (Real Madrid) | -£58.50m
9. Mauro Icardi (Paris Saint-Germain) | -£58.50m
8. Sergio Busquets (Barcelona) | -£59.40m
7. Gareth Bale (Real Madrid) | -£63.00m
6. Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur) | -£63.00m
5. Lionel Messi (Paris Saint-Germain) | -£72.00m
4. Neymar (Paris Saint-Germain) | -£72.00m
3. Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) | -£90.00m
2. Philippe Coutinho (Barcelona) | -£108.00m
1. Eden Hazard (Real Madrid) | -£112.50m
Hazard and Coutinho's values have both plummeted by more than £100 million, which is quite extraordinary when you remember that neither of them are over 30 yet.
Messi is perhaps the most surprising name in the top five, although much of his decline is down to the fact that he's now 34 years of age.
The youngest player on the list is 25-year-old Alli, who's endured a nightmare few years at Spurs after smashing it as a fresh-faced youngster.
Let's hope the Englishman can find something close to his best form before it's too late.
