Exactly 10 days after Carlo Ancelotti announced that Eden Hazard had ‘the flu’, the Red Devil is still not training with the group. Hazard returned to training last Thursday, but did so separately. The next day, Ancelotti explained at his press conference that Hazard was ‘still too weak’. As a result, he was not selected for Sunday’s game against Sevilla.
But what is it now? Even at the start of the new working week, Hazard has still not been included in group training. The Madrid press smells danger. There would be more to it than just a flu attack. When Ancelotti was asked about this on Saturday, he replied: “I can’t look inside Hazard’s head.” Here and there it is again suggested that there would be a (muscle) injury. Real Madrid denies that (for now). Tomorrow Madrid will again play Bilbao in their own stadium – the chance that Hazard will be in the selection is small. Today Ancelotti will give a new press conference. Is this an ending story for Hazard?
