Real Madrid winger, Vinicius Junior will take the No.7 shirt at the LaLiga side, allowing him to follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo and Raul.
Hazard had filled the No.7 spot in Real’s ranks since 2019/2020.
While Hazard toiled in the Spanish capital, Vinicius saw his stock rise. The Brazil international, who joined in 2018 from Flamengo, has become one of the most exciting talents on the planet. At just 22, Vinicius already has 59 goals in 225 appearances for the Blancos, winning two LaLiga titles and a Champions League crown.
Vinicius will be giving up No.20 in Madrid, which is expected to go to Fran Garcia following his return to the Bernabeu from Rayo Vallecano, while fellow Brazilian Rodrygo is being upgraded from 21 to 11.
