Eden Hazard says he does not feel like a 'Galactico' yet following a summer move from Chelsea which could exceed £150m in value.

The Real Madrid forward, 28, has started three games in La Liga but is yet to record a goal or an assist.

The Belgian has inherited all-time top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo's number seven shirt and is widely regarded as his replacement for the 2019-20 season.

"I'm not a Galactico yet. I have to show that I can be one," said Hazard.

"We all know the history of the number seven shirt at this club and I want to show I can be the best in the world. I want to give my all, not just in matches but in training too."

Hazard, who cost an initial £89m, could start Real Madrid's Champions League group-stage clash with Club Bruges on Tuesday having played 70 minutes in their 3-0 defeat by Paris St-Germain.

Wales international Gareth Bale has been left out of the squad despite starting the 0-0 draw with league rivals Atletico Madrid on Saturday but midfielder Isco has been included.

That defeat by PSG leaves Real bottom of Group A and they are looking to avoid three successive Champions League defeats for the first time in their history.
