Due to his injuries and his repeated absences at Real Madrid, the market value of Eden Hazard decreased considerably.

In 2019, the attacking midfielder signed a four-year contract with Real Madrid. His arrival at the Spanish club generated great hopes among the fans, because the Belgian had been one of the best players of Chelsea. However, one year after his arrival, the reality is completely different.

Hours before Real Madrid's debut in the 2020 Champions League against Shakhtar Donetsk, Eden Hazard suffered another setback. He has suffered a new injury and it's expected that he won't be able to return to action before November. His injury has affected his right leg.

Due to this new injury and his repeated absences at Real Madrid, his market value decreased considerably. The Spanish club had paid 100 million euros plus a further 40 in variables for his services. Currently, he is valued at 60 million euros according to online experts from the website Transfermarkt.

Up to what he has shown, Eden Hazard hasn't been the player that Real Madrid expected. Since his arrival at the club, the Belgian has played 22 matches for Real Madrid. In total, he has scored only one goal and has given seven assists. In addition, he has been injured six times, missing a total of 225 days.
