Real Madrid star Eden Hazard has lifted the lid on his struggles at the Santiago Bernabeu amid reports linking him with an exit in the January transfer window.
Hazard's disastrous transfer to Real has been well-documented as the player has desperately failed to live up to expectations following his club record €115 million (R2 billion) switch from Chelsea in 2019.
With the Belgian having only made 72 appearances since then, reports in the Spanish have suggested that Real are ready to cut their losses with the former Lille star in January, with Aston Villa thought to be the only club who is seriously interested in him.

However, with the World Cup set to start, Hazard has now addressed the rumours about his immediate club future
"In January it is impossible, because I have family and I like the city,' the 31-year-old said when asked about the chances of leaving the Spanish capital, according to the Daily Mail.
"But in summer it is possible that I go. I have one more year on my contract and it's the club's decision.
"If the club tells me "Eden, thanks for four years, but you have to go", I have to accept it because it's normal.
"But I would like to play more, show more that I can play, that I am a good player."

The ex-Blues attacking midfielder also went on to explain why he has seemingly fallen from grace.
"I have played many games in ten years, seven in the Premier League with many kicks,' the Belgian added. 'There are moments in life when you have a little less luck with a game, an injury... and you have to understand your way of life.
"You can change things in life, but I think many were due to bad luck, a bit because of the coronavirus, a bit because of the lockdown."
