Real Madrid coach Ancelotti admits 'Hazard has to have minutes'

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti says Eden Hazard is fit for their clash with Athletic Bilbao.

Asked about Eden Hazard's fitness, Ancelotti gave positive news.

"Eden is fine and has carried out all of the training session with the team," he stated.

"He will be with the team [against Athletic]. He has not had any muscular discomfort, only gastroenteritis. Rodrygo has also had it and is not in the best condition.

"Hazard's problem is physical, he has to improve his condition. He has to have minutes. Of course, having minutes will improve his condition. He has to endure, but we have many games and I think he will get minutes."
