De Rijkste Belgen

Eden Hazard is a retired Belgian footballer and one of the best players of his generation. A winger known for his dribbling, he won the French double with Lille, two Premier League titles, the FA Cup and two Europa Leagues with Chelsea, and La Liga and the Champions League with Real Madrid. He captained Belgium to third place at the 2018 World Cup.

When he retired in October 2023, De Rijkste Belgen put his wealth at €93 million, about $103.9 million at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. Its register page currently shows €93.4 million, which ranks him No. 279 in Belgium.

How he made his money

Hazard's fortune comes from seven seasons at Chelsea, where he was one of the club's best-paid players, and four at Real Madrid, which signed him in 2019 for a fee reported at over €100 million. Sponsorship deals added to his football income.

De Rijkste Belgen wrote that he does not present himself as an investor. Instead his wealth is managed in a traditional way by intermediaries who invest it in shares and bonds.

Career at a glance

Born in La Louvière, Hazard joined Lille's academy as a teenager and made his debut at 16. He became the first non-French player to win Ligue 1's young player of the year award twice, and in 2011 he helped Lille win the league and cup double.

At Chelsea he won the Premier League in 2015 and 2017 and was voted the PFA Players' Player of the Year in 2015. Injuries limited him at Real Madrid, though he won La Liga and the 2022 Champions League. He retired from international football after the 2022 World Cup with 126 caps and from all football in October 2023, at 32.

About this estimate

De Rijkste Belgen (The Richest Belgians) is a ranking of the wealthiest people and families in Belgium, compiled by the financial journalist Ludwig Verduyn. Its main list, De Lijst, covers about 500 names and values each one from what can be traced: company accounts, shareholdings, property and, for athletes, career earnings that have been built up over the years. Its October 10, 2023 article on his retirement said the wealth he had built up from football came to €93 million.

The figure is the list's own estimate of his wealth, not a salary or a yearly income. We show it in euros, as published, with a rough US dollar conversion at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. Transfer fees and wages mentioned on this page are club spending or earnings, not wealth.
