Hazard broke into the scene at Lille, before joining Chelsea in the summer of 2012. The Belgian hit the ground running in the Premier League and soon became a household name. He went on to play 352 games for the Blues over seven seasons, scoring 110 goals, before making the much-awaited move to Real Madrid in 2019. However, his time at Santiago Bernabeu has been riddled with injuries so far.
Speaking at a press conference, Zidane expressed his sympathy for the player, admitting he was going through testing times. However, the Real Madrid manager remained hopeful that Hazard would return to his best form after recovery.
The Real Madrid star has already missed a chunk of the season due to a combination of injuries and COVID-19. Hazard has appeared 13 times for the Los Blancos this season and has found the back of the net thrice.
Eden Hazard unlucky with the injury, says the Real Madrid boss
The Real Madrid manager rued the Belgian’s back luck and remained adamant that the team needed Hazard. Zidane also revealed that the player himself is determined to get back to full fitness.
Hazard is expected to miss four games in the league and could also be a doubt for Real Madrid’s UEFA Champions League game against Atalanta later this month.
