Belgium captain Eden Hazard has returned to training ahead of their quarter-final tie with Wales tomorrow night after suffering a thigh injury. 

Hazard has been fantastic this month for Belgium, as they made it through to the knockout stages of Euro 2016 with a second-placed finish behind Italy in Group E, before tearing Hungary apart.


The Chelsea forward, who scored four goals in the last five games of the Premier League season, grabbed his first goal of the tournament in that victory as he took the ball inside from the left wing and smashed it into the bottom corner, after dancing past three defenders.

He’s also collected three assists, which is the joint-most at the Euros, so he’s certainly their danger man heading into tomorrow night’s clash. With that in mind, the Red Devils have been boosted by his presence in training today.


There were some small fears that Hazard wouldn’t make it against the Welsh – who didn’t concede a goal against the Red Devils in Euro 2016 qualifying – but he’s erased any doubt by appearing in their final training session ahead of the game today.

So far in the tournament, Hazard has created 15 chances and completed 22 take-ons, which is more than any other player in France.
