Hazard Looks to Impress In First Game

New Real Madrid star Eden Hazard says he will bring freedom of spirit to his new club as he prepares to play his first game.

Real’s attack has looked lackluster since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo last summer, their La Liga goal tally plummeted from 94 to 63, but Hazard should remedy that.

It may prove the first taster of Hazard’s Real career since his €100m move from Chelsea last month.

“It’s just friendly games but for me, it’s going to be my first game with Real Madrid so of course, I want to impress everyone,” he said in an interview with Jay Shetty.

“I like to put myself on the right, then on the left, sometimes in the center, playing by instinct. That’s football for me – instinct.”

Real Madrid prepares to face off against Bayern Munich and Arsenal in upcoming International Champions Cup friendlies in the United States.
