Hazard Gives Chelsea Injury Scare
The Belgium international has added to Antonio Conte’s injury
concerns after he signalled he was unable to continue and was
substituted late on in their World Cup qualifier.The forward was on target for Roberto Martinez’s side in Brussels but
was replaced 73 minutes in after picking up a knock and signalling to
the bench he was unable to continue While it was unclear how bad the injury was it will be a
further blow to Antonio Conte with star striker Diego Costa also
struggling to be fit. The striker will miss Tuesday’s international friendly with England
after being forced out of the Spain squad after aggravating a groin
problem.Both players have been in fine form for the Blues this season with
Conte having led them to second place in the table, just a point behind
leaders Liverpool going into the international break.Costa has nine goals already this season, and is the Premier League’s
top scorer, while Hazard has seven with Chelsea due to play
Middlesbrough on Sunday.
