Real Madrid star Eden Hazard does not rejoin the Belgian national team for his UEFA Nations League matches after testing positive for Covid-19 last week.
Hazard left Roberto Martínez’s panel after returning a positive PCR test and immediately returned to Madrid.
Martinez had been confident that the former Chelsea midfielder could reunite with his teammates for their matches against England and Denmark, but according to Diario AS reports, he will remain in Spain.
However, Martinez has now confirmed that Hazard has yet to return a negative test and will miss international duty.
“We are working with the Real Madrid medical department and it is not yet available to travel,” he said.
It is still positive. He will not be available for Sunday against England ”.
Hazard’s involvement in Real Madrid matches after his return to action has now been thrown into doubt with Los Blancos facing a frenzied streak of matches.
Zinedine Zidane’s team heads to Villarreal on November 21, followed by a Champions League double header with Inter Milan and Shakhtar Donetsk, on either side of a home game against Alavés.
The loss to Valencia in their last game before the international window opened a four-point gap between them and current La Liga leader Real Sociedad.
