Hazard, successfully operated in Dallas of his right ankle

Eden Hazard has already been operated on a fissure in the distal fibula of his right leg, injury that has already caused two periods of leave this season and that will take you out of play until the end of it. The objective of the Belgian is clear: 100% reach the European Championship next summer, which begins for Belgium on June 13 in St. Petersburg against Russia.

Hazard has been intervened at the Carrell Clinic in Dallas, in the state of Texas, in the southern United States. The person in charge of carrying out the operation has been the renowned Dr. Eugene Curry. The Belgian traveled to the Americas on Wednesday, accompanied by his father, Thierry, and by the head of the white club's medical services, Niko Mihic. The key point of the operation was on the titanium plate that the player has been installed since June 2017, when he was operated by an ankle fracture.

That plate has been giving him problems this course: he was injured before the PSG in November and the club opted for a conservative treatment, but after his return only lasted two games, suffering a new injury without even needing to be hit; the problem occurred itself in a badly given heel. The persistence of his ankle problems recommended going through the operating room, although he will probably not be able to play Madrid again this year. Madrid did not report on the interiors of the surgical procedure, although In these cases it is usually customary to replace the plate with a new one.

The estimated withdrawal time after the operation is between a month and a half and two to re-train with your colleagues; then he would have to get in shape, which would lengthen the wait until two and a half months or three months. The Belgian, who went yesterday to the NBA game between the Dallas Mavericks and the New Orleand Pelicans and exchanged shirts with Luka Doncic, formerly of the white team's basketball section, will remain admitted until he is discharged, after which he will return to Spain to begin his recovery. Madrid hopes that it can participate in the last days of LaLiga and that it will be available for a hypothetical Champions final which, right now, seems very distant after 1-2 in the first leg of the Champions League against the City at the Bernabéu.
