Hazard, life beyond Eden

Borussia Dortmund is a nest in which talent is enhanced and they take advantage of it in the Signal Iduna Park. Turn promises into reality and create an ecosystem where the realities that escape the radar of the greats have room is your modus vivendi. Players like Erling Haaland or Jadon Sancho enter the first bag, protagonists of past, present and future soap operas when the windows of the market open the curtain. In the second, our protagonist, Thorgan, one of the cases of 'brother of' who can best survive without his last name.

In that ecosystem it survives and stands out Thorgan Hazard (27 years old) since last season, when the aurinegros paid 25.5 million to the 'other' Borussia, that of Mönchengladbach, by the end. At the same time, Real Madrid left the quarters for his older brother, an Eden whose injuries have not allowed to shine. For the first time, they changed their position before the mirror and the student surpassed the teacher with his 7 goals and 14 assists, in its premiere as borusser. The madridista, meanwhile, was only able to leave one goal and 6 assists in just 22 games.

This new season, which must be confirmation, Thorgan suffered a fiber break that took a few games away from the team dynamics. Now, once recovered, he has regained the level. A good example of this has been Dortmund's visit to Bruges. Whether for the mystique of playing in his native Belgium or for simple quality, La Louvière gave away his best game of the course, together with the German Super Cup (before the aforementioned injury), crashes, both, which he completed with a goal and an assist in each one of them. In the last one, the receiver was an Erling Haaland who aims to share a team with his brother as soon as the future follows the marked line.

Thorgan shares past with Eden and not just because they grew up together. Chelsea joined him from Zulte Waregem when he was just 19 years old. Between assignments he grew up, away from the Stamford Bridge lights that the veteran of the family housed. In Mönchengladbach he began to be much more Thorgan than Hazard. They also share the present, future and position with the Belgian team, where our protagonist already has 28 caps (and four goals) for 105 and 32 of the oldest. Here, Eden blocks Thorgan's way. Now, as much as the white star begins to stretch, there is something that is more than clear: in the Hazard family, there is life beyond (l) Eden.
