Real Madrid attacker Eden Hazard steps up his recovery from a thigh problem ahead of the clash with Levante after the international break.

Eden Hazard has stepped up his recovery from a thigh problem, with the Real Madrid attacker pictured in training with a ball at his feet.

The 28-year-old, who has pulled out of the Belgium squad for their upcoming matches against San Marino and Scotland, is yet to make his competitive debut for Madrid due to a thigh injury.

Hazard has been pictured working with the ball during a session, though, fuelling suggestions that he will be fit to face Levante at the Bernabeu on September 14.

According to Marca, the former Chelsea attacker trained away from the main group on Thursday, although Los Blancos are hopeful that he will soon be able to take part in full-contact sessions.

The report adds that James Rodriguez and Brahim Diaz have also stepped up their recoveries from recent problems, while Isco has been working in the gym as he builds back to fitness.

Zinedine Zidane's side have won one and drawn two of their three league matches at the start of the 2019-20 campaign, with a total of five points leaving them in fifth spot.
