'Hazard's trying, but football is about goals' - Casemiro on Belgian's tough start at Real Madrid

Eden Hazard is still in the middle of a "period of adaptation" at Real Madrid, according to Casemiro

The Belgian winger completed a €100 million (£89m/$109m) switch from Chelsea to Madrid back in June, bringing to an end a successful seven-year spell in the Premier League.

The 28-year-old had been tipped to fill the sizeable void left by Cristiano Ronaldo since his departure from Santiago Bernabeu in the summer of 2018, but he has failed to impress in five appearances at the start of the 2019-20 campaign.
