Dressed in his full kit, the hologram appears as if Hazard is sitting in the studio alongside the presenters.

The hosts at channel La Une are even making eye contact towards the Belgium captain as he sits on a stool.

The remarkably realistic footage is a sign of the times and could be on screens across the UK in the near future.

Hazard will be key if Belgium are to down favourites France on Tuesday night.

He was sensational in the 2-1 victory over Brazil and capped off his performance by breaking a 52-year World Cup record.

Hazard sent Twitter wild with a 100 per cent success rate for his ten dribbles during the game.

And if he turns it on again against Les Bleus he could wreak havoc in the French defence.
