Zinedine Zidane admits not knowin when Eden Hazard will recover from injury

DBasia.news – Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane said he was unsure when Eden Hazard would return to the squad after the former Chelsea player suffered an injury. Zidane said Hazard was disappointed after his hopes of returning to the field had failed.

The Belgian national team player has indeed continued to struggle with injuries, since being purchased by Los Blancos from the Blues for 130 million pounds. As a result, the former Blues star scored just one goal last season, before being sidelined again with an ankle problem.

Hazard, who was scheduled to play against Real Valladolid in midweek, was sidelined with a leg muscle injury. Real Madrid won 1-0 without Hazard, and after the match Zidane has not indicated when he will return.

” I can’t tell you how long it will take (Hazard being injured). He was withdrawn after a few clashes in training before the match, ” said Zidane as quoted by the Daily Mail, Thursday (1/10).

At first, Zidane thought it was just a slight muscle spasm. However, after being examined it turned out to be more than that. Zidane had made sure it didn’t come from an injury previously suffered by Hazard. “I don’t think it will be long, but I can’t tell you when for sure, he (Hazard) is upset because he actually feels fine,” concluded Zidane
