Transfer Rumors: History Of Injuries May Prevent Belgian Midfielder From Returning To Chelsea

KEY POINTS

Eden Hazard may end up moving to Liverpool as part of the Mo Salah deal
Chelsea could reunite with Hazard, but health concerns may render the deal useless
Hazard is unlikely to play anytime soon for Real Madrid due to an injury

In his prime, there is no question that Eden Hazard would be an asset to any club.

Currently with Real Madrid, the plight of the 30-year-old midfielder has hardly changed. A likely scenario is seeing him moving again soon.

The latest on the Belgian midfielder is that he could be part of a huge deal between Los Blancos and Liverpool.

The center of the aforementioned deal is Mohamed Salah, someone that Real Madrid has its eyes on.

According to journalist Ekrem Konur, the Catalans may dangle Hazard with cash as the added weight to the deal.

But with his injury woes continuing, Real Madrid may have to sweeten the pot a bit more to get the Salah deal done.

As far as Hazard’s health is concerned, the latest update on the Belgian will hardly help as well.

According to Marca, Hazard is back on the pitch. He is coming off an injury he sustained against France.

Los Blancos was training for the last time on Sunday at Valdebebas and is scheduled to travel to Ukraine for their UEFA Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk this week.

But with Hazard training in isolation, he is unlikely to see action for Real Madrid.

Also training alone were Dani Ceballos, Isco and Gareth Bale.

Hazard is under contract with Real Madrid until June 30, 2024.

Although Hazard carved a name for himself throughout his career, it remains that his inability to stay healthy is a concern and has hurt his stock.

Should he move to Liverpool, it would be an entirely new team and the environment he needs to adapt to.

Unless he finds a way to properly address his continuity and durability on the field, Hazard may find himself lost.

A return to Stamford Bridge was suggested, a team where he is considered a legend.

Rumors have it that Hazard is open to reuniting with Chelsea, a club he played for from 2012 to 2019. Informal talks have allegedly started, according to El Nacional.

But aside from his injury woes, the big question is on whether he is someone who can be used by Thomas Tuchel.

The Blues do need a scorer as most of their offensive players are struggling to blend in.

Hazard would make sense for Chelsea. But if he continues to be sidelined due to injuries, a deal for the Belgian may also not make sense for Tuchel and the Blues.
