The Belgian international, despite being nominated himself, does not think he will win the prestigious award, and he has given his prediction.
"I don't have any chance of winning the Ballon d'Or, I think a lot of players are better than me but I am happy to be in the last 30 players," Hazard told 'Sky Sports'.
"I don’t know if in the future I can have the chance to win the Ballon d’Or but it is not my objective now," he added.
"My objective is to play and to enjoy myself on the pitch. For the last 10 years, it has always been Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, but Neymar is coming and a couple of others so we will see when Messi and Ronaldo stop playing.
"I think this year Ronaldo deserves it because he won with Portugal, he won La Liga and he won the Champions League.
"If I want to win it in the future then I need to win everything [with my club and Belgium]."
Do you agree with the Chelsea star? Who do you think will be named the world's best player this year?
