Hazard was set to make his first appearance of the season against Valladolid after missing a chunk of pre-season and earlier fixtures with Real Sociedad and Real Betis due to fitness struggles. He also risks missing Madrid's game against Cadiz after the international break and the 'Clasico' with Barcelona on Oct. 25. The Belgian forward joined Real Madrid from Chelsea last year for a joint-club record fee of 100 million euros ($117 million). OFFICIAL: Real Madrid have confirmed that Eden Hazard is out with a muscular injury on his right leg. "He was looking just as fast as usual and this new injury is a little setback for him but at least it's not the ankle."
