Eden Hazard, a former winger for Chelsea and Real Madrid, stated that he gave up playing football because he was no longer enjoying himself on the field.
Remember how Eden Hazard shocked everyone by announcing his retirement from professional football on October 10, 2023?
Three months after Real Madrid and the Belgian winger, 32, mutually ended his contract, the news of his signing was made public.
When Hazrad departed Real Madrid on July 1, 2023, the majority of his supporters believed he may make a comeback to Chelsea or perhaps join the Saudi Pro League or Major League Soccer in the US.
Eden Hazard, who has not played for his country since December 2022, was forced to withdraw from the competition after failing to receive a decent offer during his three-month absence from a club.
Hazard acknowledged in an interview with L’Avenir—which was cited earlier today, October 19, by Italian transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano—that he dislikes training, contrary to what the majority of his teammates have previously claimed.
The 33-goal scorer in 126 appearances for his nation, the Belgian international, also stated he didn’t want to play for money, which suggests a Middle Eastern club likely approached him when he was without a club.
Eden Hazard stated, “I always said that I would stop playing as soon as I no longer had fun on the field.”
“I refused to go play elsewhere just to get paid. I stopped playing and didn’t enjoy training. The choice was easy to make.
