"It's sad Hazard is injured again"- Courtois sympathize with his Belgian team-mate

    

Thibaut Courtois admits Eden Hazard is a "little sad" after the Real Madrid star was  ruled out of action with injury. 

The Belgium international was absent on Wednesday as Zinedine Zidane's side 1-0 win over Real Valladolid in La Liga I Wednesday night.

Vinicius Jr scored the only goal in the game after he came on after half hour mark.

The 29-year-old's latest injury appears to be a muscle injury in his right leg with doubts now over whether he'll be fit in time for the first El Clasico of the season later this month. 

"Hazard is a little sad, he was training very well, it's a little setback. It's not the ankle," Courtois said post-match. "I hope he's back soon. Hazard was looking forward to playing again."
