Hazard worries Real Madrid

Madrid visits San Mamés. There Athletic awaits him in a match that could be the final blow to leave La Liga well tied up.

Neither Hazard nor Varane will be in that match. Both are the two big absences in the squad list for Los Blancos. 

The ankle is still giving the Belgian star problems. He injured his ankle in November and had to go into surgery in March. But, again, he seems to have a limp.

"I hope Hazard is a small thing," Zidane said at the pre-match press conference. That's the wish of Real Madrid as a whole.

Marca says there is some uneasiness and concern about the condition of Hazard's ankle. His pains are slowing him down this year.

So far in 2019-20, Hazard has missed 56.82% of the matches. A figure that, Madrid hopes, will not keep growing in the future.
