EDEN HAZARD’S injury hell at Real Madrid has continued after the club confirmed he picked up ANOTHER muscle problem.
The former Chelsea star started Los Blancos’ 2-1 defeat to Levante last weekend but missed training on Tuesday.

HLN claim the injury is the same as the one he suffered in November only now in his left leg not his right.
The report adds that Hazard is likely to miss four to six weeks with his latest problem.
That would see the 30-year-old miss both legs of the Champions League knockout clash with Atalanta as well as numerous league games.
For Hazard it’s another blow in what has been a tumultuous time during his Real Madrid career.
He also faced criticism for being overweight in his past two pre-seasons, as he struggled for fitness.
At the start of the season he was hampered by a calf injury, but looked to have returned to his best in spells under Zidane.
Yet his progress was once again hampered after he tested positive for coronavirus in November.
Just days after his isolation period had ended Hazard was then ruled out for the rest of 2020 after he was forced off during Real’s 2-1 defeat to Alaves.
The Belgian missed six games with a muscle injury in the same right leg, including the 3-1 El Clasico win against Barcelona back in October.
Hazard’s latest setback is the TENTH separate problem he’s picked up in the Spanish capital.
In contrast at Chelsea, Hazard netted 110 times in 352 games across seven seasons, missing just 20 matches through injury.
