Eden Hazard suffers 18th injury at Real Madrid as star's struggles take another turn

Real Madrid have confirmed Eden Hazard has suffered a knee injury - as the former Belgium international's difficult spell in the Spanish capital continues.

Hazard, 32, joined Real for an initial £89million in June 2019 after establishing himself as one of the best players in Europe at Chelsea. He scored 110 goals and won six trophies at Stamford Bridge - including two Premier League titles - to become a club legend.
