‘Nobody at Real Madrid believes in him’: the Spanish press hits the nail on the head for Eden Hazard

For this second part of the season, Carlo Ancelotti hopes that players who were little used during the first part of the season will (finally) prove themselves. For the newspaper Sport, these include Vallejo, Odriozola, Mariano, Ceballos, Asensio, Camavinga or even a certain Eden Hazard.

An ordeal at the end of the season for Hazard?

Recently retired with the Red Devils, with whom he played his last minutes against Croatia, the Brainois is now 100% focused on Real Madrid. Still under contract until June 2024, Hazard still wants to try to win with the Merengues.

But for Sportthis will probably never happen: “No one at Real Madrid believes in the Belgian”, writes the Spanish daily. Especially since compared to most of the names mentioned above, he leaves with the handicap of having participated in the World Cup and of not having, a fortiori, not had a complete preparation with the Merengues. Ancelotti is indeed relying heavily on players who were not present at the World Cup (Odriozola, Mariano, Ceballos, Vallejo, etc.), especially during the first official matches. “With less mental and physical load (than the players present in Qatar, Editor’s note), Ancelotti hopes that they will be the protagonists of Real on recovery.écrit Sport.

On the other hand, for Eden Hazard, it will be more complicated according to Sport: “There’s another group of players, those who didn’t explode, who disappointed. At their head, we find Eden Hazard, who assured this summer that it was time to start making a difference. But it was just another ‘bluff’”.

Sport believes that in view of its World Cup “correct”, with a goal scored, Marco Asensio clearly passed him in the hierarchy. Especially since the Spaniard is in his last year of contract and will do everything to be able to show himself.

According to Marca, in its edition of this Thursday, “Real Madrid opens the doors to a departure from Hazard in January”, even if the Brainois has already ruled out a departure this winter.

The end of the season is therefore likely to be very long for the now ex-captain of the Red Devils.

What future now for Eden Hazard?
