Eden Hazard's Premier League suitors are concerned about his fitness as they mull over a move for injury-plagued free agent after his Real Madrid departure

Eden Hazard's proposed return to the Premier League is being hampered by reservations over his fitness and conditioning.

The former Chelsea forward is a free agent after leaving Real Madrid earlier this summer following a forgettable spell in Spain where he made just 30 LaLiga starts in four years.

Hazard built a reputation as one of the world's elite players during his spell at Stamford Bridge, persuading Real to spend £89million on signing him in 2019.

Mail Sport understands there has been varying levels of interest in Hazard from a number of clubs in England in recent weeks.
