Wilmots: Hazard will recover in time for Wales

Despite being taken off with a minor knock in the earlier round, the Chelsea winger will return to be fit for the Red Devil's last-eight tie, according to his international boss

Marc Wilmots insists Eden Hazard will be 100 per cent fit for Belgium's Euro 2016 quarter-final against Wales, despite sitting out training on Tuesday.

The Chelsea star was influential in his side's 4-0 round-of-16 win over Hungary on Sunday, scoring the third with a spectacular strike.

However, having picked up a knock in that game and subsequently being substituted, he joined Thomas Vermaelen in missing out on Belgium's latest training session.
