After the revelations about his lifestyle when he was a professional player, Eden Hazard attracted the wrath of Christophe Dugarry, who believes that the Belgian lacked respect for Zinedine Zidane, who brought him to Real Madrid.
Four months after announcing his retirement, Eden Hazard spoke at length in an interview with France Football last Saturday. The former Belgian international spoke in particular about his lifestyle, which is clearly not in line with high-level sport. Relationships which had the gift of putting Christophe Dugarry beside himself.
“It’s very nice to put this out now but it had to be said first. It’s when you sign your multi-million euro contract that you have to tell the president that you’re going out in the evening. Did he tell his managers and teammates that he was getting drunk and that he didn’t like running in training? Football is a team and professional sport. You have obligations”lamented the 98 world champion on RMC.
“Why didn’t he tell Zidane before being recruited? »
A long-time friend of Zinedine Zidane, “Duga” also denounced a lack of respect from Hazard towards the French technician, who endorsed his arrival at Real Madrid in the summer of 2019 for 115 million euros. “Obviously you can’t follow the rules for everything, but promoting nonsense is a shame. he lashed out. Hazard was a great player but saying that is a shame for the supporters who paid to come see you play when you were drunk the day before. His interview is about making fun of the world and football. If you want to act brave, you have to say it before. Why didn’t he tell Zidane before being recruited by Real Madrid for 100 million euros? (115 million in reality, editor’s note). »
During his extensive interview, the former Lille resident notably confided: “I’m a bon vivant, I like to eat, with friends, we have a drink. It happened to me the day before a match, eating at home, drinking a small bottle, tack. Oh me, Boxing Day, it’s Christmas, raclettes, wine (he claps his hands), we were going I don’t know where, goal, goal… While people tell me to be careful. It’s weird… Dietetics sucks, it’s useless. Well, it’s good if you want to play until you’re 40. I knew that wouldn’t be my case. A little Ruinart Blanc de Blancs, it’s in the fridge all the time. »
