Ex-Chelsea star Hazard: My body couldn't keep up

Former Real Madrid and Chelsea star Eden Hazard was happy to attend Monday's Ballon d'Or ceremony.

Hazard presented the Kopa Trophy to Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham on the night.

He told Radio Marca: "Why am I here? Because my children asked to come. 'Okay, then we'll go to Paris together to spend a night and have fun,' I told them.

"I can do what I want and enjoy my family, my children. Do I still watch football? Naturally. My children play football and I watch it with them. For now I don't miss playing football. Maybe in a few months, I don't know.

"I'm only 32 years old, but I really started early... I left home when I was 14 and ended up doing everything I wanted. This was the right time: my body couldn't keep up anymore.

"I had some injuries at the end and that's why I made the decision. And I'm also glad I made them."
