As part of a recent interview for On The Front Foot, Eden Hazard finally opened up about his recent injury woes as a Real Madrid player.
Eden Hazard’s injury woes at Real Madrid have prevented us from getting the Belgian star’s best version. The most recent muscular injury reportedly affected him on a psychological level that might be hard to overcome. However, the player keeps trying to look at the positives of this complicated situation. As any other footballer would, he relies on his family for emotional support in these troubled times.
Hazard explained how he is handling these issues and he also touched on his possible retirement. As of right now, injuries haven’t knocked Ede down just yet. He still intends to keep playing until he is past 35, at least. But Hazard also knows that patience is not high at a club as big as Real Madrid. The star is aware he might get sold if he doesn’t start delivering results quickly.
Hazard opens up about his struggles.
In an interview for On The Front Foot, Eden Hazard said the following: “I’m fortunate enough to stay at home with my family when I get injured, that helps me get through it. It’s not the end of the world because I get to spend time with my kids. When you are injured and alone, it can get tough but my family supports me. You can do many things when you are injured. You can work in order to recover quickly but the injuries I suffered require more time to heal. I only have to wait, work hard, and improve.
“When I’m home, I can enjoy family time. I certainly hope I can play for as long as possible and always enjoy myself on the pitch. When I get to the end of my career, I want to look back and see my achievements. But my top priority right now is to play well and enjoy football. I have no idea where I will be in the next few years but I will try to focus on the next match or the next training session. I’m only 30, my body is in good shape. Fortunately, I think I can still play for at least five or six more years.”
