The Belgian has excelled in the London team for years. After the last season in which he scored 21 goals in 52 games with 17 assists, it was clear that the English will find it difficult to keep him. The main question is, Is Madrid selling Hazard?
He never hid his desire to play for the “kings”. The moment was right. Cristiano Ronaldo was already at Juventus and someone had to fill the gap he left. Or at least try to patch part of it because the Portuguese’s performance will hardly be surpassed by anyone.
He managed to inherit only the “number” from Ronaldo. Instead of goals, the unfortunate Hazard in Real collects only injuries. The doctor’s card thus further thickened his tenth in less than two years. That means he missed more games (38) than he played (35).
This time he was injured in training, his muscle was injured, and he will be out of the field for between three and four weeks. So he will probably miss the first match of the eighth-finals of the Champions League against Atalanta, and he will not be in four league matches.
His dream of playing in Madrid turned into a nightmare. He performed just 24 times scoring four goals. So 10 injuries and four goals. By comparison, in his eight-year stay at Chelsea, he scored 110 times in 352 games and missed only 20 games due to injury.
This season, he has been “out of the machine” twice, and as trouble never comes alone – Eden also “grabbed” the crown. He was absent for 57 days, and now that number could be dangerously close to a hundred. In addition, after returning from summer vacation, Hazard arrived “a little rounder” during the preparations.
We remember numerous pictures of “chubby Eden” from social networks. It is pointless to talk about what kind of player it is. His statistics from the “blues” and the Belgian national team speak for themselves, but he has not been happy at the royal club so far. That may push the gossip about is Madrid selling Hazard.
The question is how much more patience Zidane will have before the Belgian ends up on the transfer list. Its value, according to Transfermarkt, felt down dramaticaly after arriving to the club. The 30-year-old wing now “calms” 50 million euros.
