Kompany: There's still magic in Real Madrid attacker Hazard

Burnley boss Vincent Kompany insists former Belgium teammate Eden Hazard can still have plenty to offer.

Hazard is expected to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season.

Kompany told RTBF: “It is too early to talk about the end of his career.

"The most important thing is that Eden (Hazard) had injuries and that's all that changed. Having injuries, you also have to respect the fact that you don't control that. He has dealt with the injuries and the aftermath.

"And it's always difficult to come back.

“He can always score in the Champions League final, he can win a title. There is still magic in this player, in the person. And you have to expect the best from him so that he ends up as he deserves."
