Aston Villa eye surprise move for Real Madrid star - Reports

Aston Villa reportedly chasing Real Madrid star are reportedly planning a stunning move for winger to end his nightmare stint in Spain. The Belgian international moved to the Bernabeu in 2019 for a club-record fee (€146.1 million) after seven incredible seasons at Chelsea. However, Hazard's time in the Spanish capital has been a disaster as he has scored just seven times in 72 appearances. The Belgian's spell at Real Madrid has been ravaged by injury problems and he has made just six appearances so far this term. The winger has plenty of competition ahead of him from the likes of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, while he has rarely been given a chance in a central role.

Carlo Ancelotti blames fatigue for recent Real Madrid draw

Real Madrid's lead at the top of La Liga was reduced to one point over the weekend as they were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Girona on 30 October. The result followed up their first defeat of the season when they lost to RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Los Blancos have played plenty of games during their brutal schedule leading up to the FIFA World Cup. Ancelotti believes the amount of games is taking its toll. The Italian told reporters after the Girona draw (as per ): "We are not at the level we were last week. We have had some problems, with the return of injured players [such as] Rodrygo [Goes], [Luka] Modric, [Aurelien] Tchouameni. We are playing a lot of matches and we are feeling the fatigue." "We have the chance on Wednesday [against Celtic] to seal top [spot in the Champions League group] and the objective is to be leaders at the break. At the moment, we have everything in our hands." The Real Madrid manager added: "The matches are complicated against all teams, it's normal. The level is not excellent because there are many matches, too many, and there is no time to recover 100 percent physically and mentally. I don't see anyone playing spectacularly, all teams suffer."Real Madrid have kept just 2 clean sheets in 12 La Liga games. This is their fewest clean sheets at this stage since 2013/14.
