Chelsea winger Eden Hazard believes that teammate Juan Mata is more deserving of the PFA Player of the Year award.

Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has insisted that teammate Juan Mata has been the club's best player this season.

Both Hazard and Mata have been nominated for the PFA Player of the Year award, and ahead of the ceremony on Sunday evening, the Belgian international believes that his teammate has more chance of picking up the accolade than himself.

The 22-year-old told the club's official website: "Juan is also nominated and he played very well this season, scoring and making assists. For me, he has been our best player".

Both players are expected to feature when Chelsea take on Basel in Switzerland on Thursday night.
