Eden Hazard , who already missed the game against Getafe , will not travel to Bilbao to meet the Athletic Club and will be "three or four days" out of group dynamics by a strong blow suffered in his ankle operated, revealed Zinedine Zidane who regretted a new brake on the Belgian season.

"It is true that Eden the last days is having problems and as always we do not want to risk anything, he is the first. Hopefully it is little and we can see him again with us before the end. He will be gone three or four days for this problem and I hope he will come back soon, "said Zidane at the telematic press conference offered from Ciudad Real Madrid.

After receiving several blows to the operated right ankle , Hazard suffered one in the match in Barcelona against Espanyol that forces him to stop again in a season full of physical problems.

"In the end it is the day to day that shows the discomfort, we do not know anything else that is a strong blow. Those who know, the doctors and physios, are very competent and believe that it is a coup and a matter of days. Against Espanyol He has received a blow that prevents him from being well at the moment, "he acknowledged.

"The truth is that these are the things that we do not want, an injured player who cannot do his job on the field, it is the worst. Like Eden and everyone when they are injured, there are many people to help the player. It is his first year here and he wants to help the team, when he can't do it he is not happy, "he added.

The Madrid coach discarded that Hazard had psychological consequences and an ankle fear that has already had to operate twice during his career.

" I don't think he is afraid of getting injured , he wants to play and it is okay to do it. When he has discomfort and he doesn't see one hundred percent it is a problem for him and for everyone because we love Eden to the fullest and that nothing happens to him. They are annoyances and I hope that soon we will get out of that, "he said.

"There is no euphoria here, only work and commitment"

Zidane has assured that "there is no euphoria" in the team for being leaders of LaLiga Santander and that there is only "work and sacrifice", and has appealed to maintain "concentration" this Sunday.

"The players know that it is a difficult and long competition. With what they did during the confinement, on the return they have shown that they want to go for everything . Here there is no euphoria because we have not won anything. There is work and commitment", declared at a press conference. "Here there is constant pressure at Real Madrid, it makes this club great. That is good, it is what leads you to do good things," he added.

In addition, the French coach stressed that "the important thing is the players." "We are all important, but they are the ones who play, fight, fight and train every day," he said, before speaking about his rival this Sunday. "San Mamés has always been a difficult field. We know that we are going to have to do a great game and we are ready to do it tomorrow," he stressed.

He was also satisfied with the physical condition of the team. "With few games left and playing every three days, you need a lot of concentration in everything you do : in recovery, in the physical ... They are details, in the end. We are fine. Being the coach of these players I am enjoying every day, and even it's over, I'm going to enjoy it. We have another complicated game tomorrow and all our energy is in it, "he explained.
