It's too much - Hazard latest to criticise fixture crush ahead of international break

Belgium star Thorgan Hazard has expressed his frustrations with the intense 2020-21 season schedule ahead of his country’s upcoming international triple-header.

The 27-year-old winger is in Roberto Martinez’s squad for Nations League games with England and Denmark, plus a friendly against Switzerland this month, with all three games in the next nine days.

Though Hazard has been limited to just 135 minutes in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund this term thanks to a ruptured thigh muscle, he has become the latest figure in the game to weigh in on the fixture crush.
