Chelsea legend Eden Hazard has been inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.
He is the 26th player to be added and has been selected alongside Gary Neville as the two former players selected for induction this year by the 24 existing Hall of Fame members.
Hazard was named the Premier League's player of the season in 2014-15 and was also the club's player of the season four times during seven years at Stamford Bridge.
He won the Premier League twice, scoring 85 times and registering 54 assists in 245 appearances in the division between 2012 and 2019.
"It means a lot to join the Premier League Hall of Fame," Hazard said on his induction. "I'm very proud to join this group of players and I think we could make a good squad!
"I grew up playing football for fun, with my brothers in the back garden, but my dream was always to play at the highest level.
"I just wanted to have fun on the pitch and entertain the fans who bought tickets or watched on TV. Being recognised in this way is special for me and my family. My parents were both footballers and now my children love the game too."
Jose Mourinho, who was Chelsea manager when Hazard won his first title in 2014-15, added: "Everybody knows that you belong there. You are one of the most amazing players that I ever worked with and of course you have to be there.
"You are in the Hall of Fame so now you stay in our memories - and by the way thank you so much for helping to win my last Premier League title!"
