Gervinho: Hazard would succeed in BPL

Arsenal striker Gervinho believes former Lille team-mate Eden Hazard has what it takes to be a hit in the Barclays Premier League.
The Ivorian was part of the Lille team which won the French league and cup double last season, in a campaign which also saw Hazard named the Ligue 1 Footballer of the Year.
Hazard's outstanding performances have not gone unnoticed by Europe's elite, with the likes of Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Arsenal and Liverpool reportedly monitoring the Belgian international's progress.
And having witnessed Hazard's talent first-hand, Gervinho has no doubts his former team-mate can succeed in the Premier League.
"Hazard is a young man with enormous quality," the Ivorian told RMC Sports.
"If he has decided to leave, it is normal for clubs to be interested, as he has the level to triumph in a big league like England.
"Eden has learnt a lot at Lille, and I believe he could succeed abroad.
"Where he goes is up to the clubs, but it will be a big operation."
Chelsea are the latest side to be linked with the talented 20-year-old, although should Arsenal decided to pursue their reported interest in Hazard, they will be hoping Gervinho will be able to convince him that the Emirates Stadium is his most ideal destination.
