Eden Hazard did not ask Real Madrid to give him the No.7 jersey, but it was the club who trust him and give him the glory to wear the shirt, according to AS.
Real Madrid had announced on Friday that Hazard will wear the iconic No.7 at the team, which once belonged to legends like Ronaldo, Raul and Juanito.
However, AS claims that the decision had nothing to do with Hazard's demand, it was Real Madrid who decided to give him the number.
Since the No.10 at Real Madrid belongs to Ballon d'Or winner Modric who is unlikely to give up the number, Hazard has no particular choice for a jersey number.

Stars are given this number, you don't ask but you get it because your team sees a hidden talent in you, and they know one day you will become a best player of the world. Make your team proud of you. All the best for your career and life and have lots success in future.

Then what the fuck about Mariano. I think he's forgotten by the club like Fabrico Coentaro
