Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois insists Eden Hazard is a popular member of the squad.

The Belgian discussed his compatriot days after both coach Carlo Ancelotti and the player confirmed that there is no relationship between the two.

“When Hazard returned from the World Cup, he trained very well and was waiting for an opportunity because the Brazilians were not there. The opportunity did not come and he lowered his head a little.

"He has never disrespected anyone," Courtois said after the win against Liverpool at the Santiago Bernabéu.v
