Eden Hazard, the star of the Belgium national team and the Real Madrid team, classified his career with the Spanish giants as a “failure
Hazard said in an interview with the French newspaper L’Equipe, “Of course, I consider my career with Real Madrid a failure. I faced abnormal things such as the large number of injuries and Corona, which prevented me from leaving a mark with the team
The Belgian star added, “I do not know the reason behind my many injuries, but the root of the problem remains after the quarantine period, after which I was unable to regain my physical fitness
And he continued, “I will not blame anyone. I participated in 3 matches early last season, then I had a new injury, and at the end of the season I underwent ankle surgery
He explained, “I do not currently suffer from muscle injuries, but I am training seriously, and I missed the last match in the Champions League due to knee pain
Hazard stressed, “My relationship with club president Florentino Perez is very good. He certainly lives in an embarrassing situation because of my many injuries compared to the price of my purchase, but we do not talk about this matter when we meet together
And between, “I love Real Madrid and the atmosphere of this club, but I will not leave on loan in the middle of the season. Rather, I want stability, and at the end of the season, other options can be studied
And he went on, “I know very well that it is difficult for me to participate in matches because the competition between Real Madrid players is strong, but if I participate in 20 minutes and perform well, I can leave a mark, so I do not want to leave
The former Chelsea star confirmed, “No one from Real Madrid asked me to leave the team, there is no discussion on this issue, and I do not want to leave
And he added, “I do not consider myself a winner of the Champions League with Real Madrid, because I participated in a few matches, and I have no fingerprint in winning the Spanish League, unlike the case in Chelsea, where I was always the best
“I had some good matches with Zinedine Zidane. We talked when he left Real Madrid, and he was sad for me, but I don’t talk much with Carlo Ancelotti,” said the Belgium captain
He revealed, “We talked once for 5 minutes at the beginning of the season, but I don’t talk much with the coach, and I’m not the type to go to see a coach and tell him he has to do certain things
Hazard defended himself by saying, “I am criticized because of my private life, but can a player participate in the highest levels for 10 years without following a health regime
And he stated, “I joined Real Madrid overweight, after a vacation I spent after my last match with Chelsea, but I lost a lot of weight in the preparation period at the time
And he continued, “I was one of the best 10 players in the world before the 2018 World Cup, and I do not guarantee that I will return to this position again
Hazard concluded, “I hope to be fit to participate in 4 matches in the 2022 World Cup, and to leave a distinguished mark. After the tournament, I will study all matters to determine the possibility of my retirement internationally
