Hazard suffered his umpteenth injury with Belgium since the white player. The injury will only cause him to miss, for the moment, the Champions League match against Shakhtar in Kiev. He is confident he will be ready to play in Sunday's 'El Clasico'.
Eden Hazard has missed all four Clasicos since joining Real Madrid, and he is keen to get the game out of his system.
The Belgian is working hard on the sidelines at Valdebebas with Real Madrid's doctors, physios and recoverers, as well as the Belgian national team's physio, as 'Mundo Deportivo' explains, in order to arrive in time for Sunday's game at Camp Nou.
The postponement of last weekend's match against Athletic Club has given him a break, and he will only miss the Champions League match against Shakhtar, provided he is recovered by the end of the week, of course.
