On what is a bad news after a productive transfer window came to an end for us, Chelsea winger Eden Hazard had suffered an injury that forced him off a training session for Belgium while at International duty. He suffered an Achilles injury while at training with the national team and Head coach Marc Wilmots said he was fit when the session began, but quickly began to struggle with a tendon issue.

No immediate word was provided about the severity of the injury. Obviously, any Achilles problem is a worrisome situation for a player who does as much running as the Chelsea star, but it all comes down to how badly the tendon is damaged.
Both the Blues and the Belgium squad will wait for further word on the dynamic playmaker. Missing him for any extended period of time would be a major blow to both sides as Chelsea face a busy campaign and the Rode Duivels move toward the World Cup.
No official statement from Chelsea website had been announced about this injury scare and let’s hope it is a short one as we desperately need the Belgian maestro at full fitness for the start of our Champions League campaign in this September schedules and October though it’s certain he won’t be out with this injury for so long.
Comment your well wishes for Hazard below and let us know your predictions on how serious this injury is. Get well soon, Eden! #KTBFFH
