Belgium coach asked Hazard and Lukaku to evaluate their future with a view to the Qatar 2022 World Cup

Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku have been two of the benchmarks for the Belgium team in recent times. However, the midfielder and the forward, thinking about the Qatar 2022 World Cup (from November 21 to December 18), have lost continuity in Real Madrid and Chelsea, respectively.

Without a doubt, a situation that occupies Roberto Martínez, the coach of the ‘Red Devils’. A few hours ago, the Spanish strategist gave an interview to Italian television to comment on how he lives the prelude to the World Cup. Throughout the dialogue, it was inevitable for the DT to delve into the two cases mentioned.

From the outset, ‘Bob’ Martínez knows that in the current campaign little can be done for Hazard and Lukaku to find new horizons to add minutes. However, the coach of the Belgians hinted that Eden and Romelu, projecting 2022-2023, should consider making a change of scenery for what they live in Spain and England.

“I am not going to judge or assess the condition of any player until after the summer, because there are still seven months to go until the World Cup. It is necessary to analyze the footballers more in the short term, not now. But there will be many players who will change clubs or feel this summer.”indicated the helmsman of the Belgians in the talk.

Along the same lines, Martínez added: “The moment to evaluate Lukaku and Hazard will be in September; They are players for whom the summer could be a great opportunity in their careers”he maintained in relation to Hazard and Lukaku, who, throughout the course, had brief appearances at the Santiago Bernabéu and Stamford Bridge, respectively.

The ‘Blancos’ midfielder has a contract until 2024 and a transfer was studied at the Madrid team’s offices, but the recent operation to which he underwent may complicate the picture. Meanwhile, the ‘Blues’ striker signed until 2026 and has been relegated by the good moment of Kai Havertz.

Roberto Martínez’s Belgium, who lost first place in the FIFA Ranking last Thursday, was drawn in group F at the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The ‘Red Devils’ will face Canada (November 23), Morocco (November 27), November) and Croatia (December 1).
