Eden Hazard’s injuries, which keep him out of Real Madrid’s plans and thus the focus of criticism in Spain, may have an unexpected explanation: is he working too hard?
At least that’s what his former Chelsea teammate, the talented John Obi Mikel, put in the air, who revealed an unknown facet of the Belgian in an interview with The Athletic.
“I’ve always said Hazard is one of the most gifted players, he had it all: speed, strength, skill, technique … He was right behind Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. But only if he wanted to. . “Yes. I want to be that good, I can be. Not as good as Messi because he’s from another planet, but I think I can be close to Cristiano and even better “… But he’s not that dedicated. He’s not training well, he’s the worst player, the training I’ve played with, ”he remarked.
In fact, the African had already told Bein Sports in 2019: “When we were training, he waited for us to finish. He’s the laziest player, but on Sundays he was always the best of the game. incredible “.
“Why is he so bad? My God. Eden, Eden, Eden … ahhhh. Because he was so good no one said anything. He would arrive on Saturday and win the game for us, he was the man of the game. But on Mondays and Tuesdays he was training and it was like he wasn’t there Standing, wandering Everybody fights, screams in the games and he didn’t. But you saw him on the field, how good he was … It’s not fair that some people are so talented! ”Milkel concluded.
There, Real Madrid could look for an explanation and perhaps find a solution to Hazard’s chronic injury problem: does he work too hard and does that affect his talent when it comes to competition? At this point, nothing can be ruled out.
