Hazard returns by halves and Varane will be against Alavés

The victory for Real Madrid on Sunday in Bilbao, which kept the team leading and undefeated after the resumption of the League, made Zidane gave his players two days off. The Frenchman knows that the physical and mental demand is being maximum and, as a reward for the professionalism and performance of his boys, he opened his hand for them to disconnect. But in the afternoon of this Tuesday he had work again, with good news and half news: the presence of Varane and Hazard, who did part of the training with the group and another individually.

The Belgian, who continues to progress, keeps the coaching staff and sports management concerned. Drag some discomfort in the area of ​​the right ankle, the successfully operated last March in Dallas, where the accumulation of kicks is supplying a handicap. Hazard, who on average receives a foul every 23.09 minutes, he is not completely comfortable since the skin of that part of the body needs more solidity for the blows he is suffering.

In the preview of the match against Getafe, he skipped the last part of the session and did not enter the list. It was decided this way due to the medical situation and the intensity of the Bordalás team, the one with the most fouls in First Division. The week progressed and Eden could not do it to the rhythm of his teammates, so he stayed at home for the visit to Athletic. Now it is a doubt to face Alavés on Friday (22:00, Movistar LaLiga).

Who also did not travel to Bilbao and reappeared this Tuesday in Valdebebas was Varane. He suffered a neck pain in front of Getafe for which he remained at home on Thursday and Friday, but the pain and dizziness have subsided, so he has been able to exercise. Its reinforcement is key due to Nacho's injury, that he is not ready yet (he alternated the interior of the facilities and the lawn alone), and the penalties of Ramos and Carvajal.

The template started with activities of elasticity and strength, and followed with the ball in series of possession and pressure. The goalkeepers, for their part, carried out specific work. To finish there were small matches in the field of reduced dimensions and series of passes, spikes and shots on goal.
