Chelsea star Eden Hazard has joked he’s worth £265m
Hazard had been heavily linked to Real Madrid until he picked up that lengthy injury.
It’s still unclear if the Spanish giants will try for the Belgian next summer but if they do he will cost them a bit.
Neymar holds the world transfer record following his £198m move from Barcelona to Paris St-Germain this summer.
And Eden has backed himself to fetch an even bigger fee should he ever move.
Hazard told Belgian paper HLN: “I don’t know how much I would cost.
“Maybe €300m (£265m)? It all depends on the market.
‘Neymar is a Brazilian, has a lot of potential, is a year younger than I am and played for Barcelona.
“A transfer fee also depends on your contract and on a number of other things
“We will see how much I am worth if I ever get a transfer.
“I didn’t really think about a transfer much.
“Although maybe it did cross my mind [that I could have joined Barcelona following Neymar’s transfer].
“A lot has happened this transfer window. That’s a good thing.
“Every time someone leaves a club, other players could come in to replace them.
“If it isn’t me, then at least it’s someone else. But I am feeling well at Chelsea.
“I have just started my sixth season here and I am enjoying myself.”
