Infamous ball-boy kicked by Eden Hazard named on UK Under-35 rich list with £55m empire

The ball-boy who was famously kicked by Eden Hazard has been named as one of the UK's richest people under the age of 35.

Charlie Morgan hit the headlines in January 2013 when Hazard kicked a ball from underneath him during a League Cup match between Chelsea and Swansea. The Belgium international was sent off and apologised to Swansea ball-boy Morgan, then 17.

Hazard has gone on to enjoy a glittering career on the pitch since then, while Morgan has found success off it. The retired ball-boy launched a premium vodka brand with a school friend and is now believed to worth a whopping £55million.
