After yesterday’s news about Eden Hazard’s injury, a Premier League legend is convinced Real Madrid should consider selling the star. 

Eden Hazard is probably going through the worst moment of his professional career at Real Madrid with so many injuries. Yesterday, he fell frustrated again with a new injury that will keep him away from the game for at least four weeks. The club’s supporters can’t seem to find the origin of this issue that has persisted for the better part of two seasons.

They are even starting to believe that Hazard is arguably the worst transfer in Real Madrid’s history. At least in the Florentino Perez era. Los Blancos spent €100 million on a player who only scored four goals in all competitions and already picked up 10 injuries. For Dimitar Berbatov, this is the ideal time to sell the player to the highest bidder before it’s too late. If they take longer to sell him, Hazard’s value will dramatically decrease over the next year. However, Zidane still seems to trust the Belgian star. 

Berbatov thinks the time to sell Hazard is now. 

“Real Madrid should consider selling Hazard,” Berbatov explained in an interview with Betfair. “He has had a lot of injuries since he arrived in Spain, and that has prevented him from showing the brilliant football that he played at Chelsea. If it was something occasional then it would be a different matter, but the fact is that the player is injured again and again and again. That is a sign that there is another problem that is affecting him.

“Will he be able to regain the form he had and show that the money Real Madrid invested in his was the right decision? Right now, the answer is no. It’s true that Hazard has only just turned 30 and still has a lot of time to contribute a lot, but this question is one that needs to be asked. Hazard has yet to prove anything in Madrid, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if he left in the summer.”
