Hazard: I want to show that I can play and that Real Madrid can also win with me

Eden Hazard suffered a scare at Real Madrid's last training session in Los Angeles, but it does not look like he will be miss his first Clasico in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Despite arriving in 2019, he has yet to face Barcelona out of a possible seven Clasicos, playing a grand total of zero minutes. That is the reality of Hazard at Real Madrid, something he is eager to turn around this season. The Belgian is more motivated than ever and only offers positive signs.

"In my head I said to myself, OK, I can play, I don't feel any pain," he said. "I'm moving forward. I've enjoyed my holidays and I've come back prepared for pre-season.

"When we won all those titles I was happy for my teammates, for the club and for the fans.

"But inside me there was one thing. I was happy for the group, but inside I said to myself: 'Let's show that I can play and that the team can also win with me.'"

Hazard staged that sentiment at Cibeles, taking the microphone and addressing the Madrid fans.

"I'm going to give everything to succeed here," he stated during the Champions League celebrations.
