Ancelotti continues to fuel Hazard speculation

The future of Eden Hazard and the possibility of his departure from Real Madrid has recently been the subject of much speculation, not least due to Real boss Carlo Ancelotti repeatedly stating that the Belgian winger is unhappy at the club.

“Hazard is not happy,” the Italian tactician said at his press conference ahead of the Rayo Vallecano clash on Saturday.

“He has talent and is training well, committed, and deserves to play. He will have minutes but, as a starter, Ill have to think about it. If he keeps the faith, he will have an opportunity. Can be tomorrow or it not. The important thing is that he is active and committed.

“I feel for him because its easy to leave a player that is unprofessional on the bench, but that is not the case.”

There has been talk about Chelsea being interesting in bringing their former star back to the club, as well as Newcastle considering the 30-year-old as their first stellar signing, but reports in Spain for now suggest Hazard still wants to fight for his place at Real.

Hazard started four of the opening five La Liga matches this term, but then he lost his place in the lineup. He is yet to score in any competition.
