"Following tests carried out today on our player, Eden Hazard, by Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with a muscle injury in the rectus femoris of his left leg. His recovery will continue to be assessed," Real Madrid said a statement.

Joining Real Madrid in 2019, Hazard helped his team win the 2020 Spanish La Liga title.

Hazard clinched a bronze medal in the 2018 FIFA World Cup as Belgium finished the tournament in the third spot.
