Real Madrid playmaker suffers new injury setback?

Eden Hazard might be facing a new difficulty in his recuperation from a muscular problem after missing Real Madrid training on Monday morning, as indicated by a report.

The ex-Chelsea playmaker has been plagued with injuries since swapping Stamford Bridge for the Bernabeu in 2019, and he has missed the club’s last four La Liga matches with his most recent muscular issue.

Zinedine Zidane recently guaranteed that Hazard was “ready” to return on schedule for a Champions League reunion with Chelsea, despite the fact that he was not considered to be fit enough for Sunday’s goalless stalemate with Getafe.

As indicated by Marca, Eden Hazard was no place to be seen in Blancos training on Monday morning, in spite of being put through some paces a week ago, and he is currently classed as a significant uncertainty for his side’s midweek battle with Cadiz.

On a more sure note, the report adds that Raphael Varane took part after returning a negative Covid test, so he ought to be accessible for Zidane on Wednesday night.

Eden Hazard has featured from the first whistle on only six occasions in the 2020-21 La Liga campaign, scoring two goals in victories over Huesca and Alaves.
