Football: Eden Hazard positive COVID-19 test disappointing - Martinez

Belgium head coach Roberto Martinez was hoping to have Hazard back playing with the national team. Martinez: "Obviously we were all delighted to see Eden [Hazard] play in the last three games with his club and starting to look happy and free, being able to score. I think we were all looking forward to seeing Eden play for the national team. I think that was good news for the club as well because to be able to play minutes and get games will help his match fitness. The positive [COVID-19 test] is a disappointing news but it's not abnormal in the current world we live in. I think being positive for coronavirus is not news anymore. At the moment, we are just following the protocols of UEFA and making sure that Eden carries on working at home so he doesn't lose any fitness and see how quickly he can join the national team, if it can happen. But no, nothing mysterious about his positive [result], nothing at all. He's asymptomatic and he feels in good spirits and that's the only thing that matters."
