Zinedine Zidane has admitted Eden Hazard’s injury is ‘worse than first expected’.

The ex-Chelsea winger is yet to play for Real Madrid this season and will be out for a further month.

Speaking ahead of Real’s home Champions League clash against Shakhtar Donetsk tomorrow, Zidane said: “His injury was more than expected.

“But he has already stepped out onto the field.

“I fully trust the people who work with him.

“I hope that soon we can see Hazard forever. We want him to come in and be with us all season.”
