BRUSSELS : Belgium coach Roberto Martinez says he hopes Eden Hazard is able to stay fit and play more regularly for his club as he outlined his plans ahead of next World Cup finals.

But the 30-year-old attacker has struggled to get game time at Real Madrid, even after recovering from a series of long-standing injuries, and this has been a source of concern in Belgium. Hazard is one of the golden generation who have kept Belgium top of the FIFA rankings since 2018 but been unable to deliver a major trophy.

"That is what the outside world expects and it creates extra pressure. I'm very happy that our players are handling this well. They always go for it. Every player is always in a special situation at his club, but with the national team everyone pulls in the same direction. That's a good mindset.
