(Reuters) – Borussia Dortmund winger Thorgan Hazard has been ruled out of Belgium’s upcoming internationals due to injury, the national team said on Tuesday.
The 28-year-old was last week named in manager Roberto Martinez’s squad for World Cup qualifiers against Estonia, the Czech Republic and Belarus between Sept. 2 and 8.
Hazard “is not fit and left the group this morning. He will continue his recovery at his club,” the national team said in a statement on Twitter https://twitter.com/BelRedDevils/status/1432676039289884677?s=20.
Hazard has scored eight goals in 39 international appearances for Belgium and was part of the team that reached the quarter-finals at Euro 2020.
