Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos has criticized former teammate Eden Hazard, saying that the Belgian “let his career die” at the Bernabeu while earning £400,000 a week at the LaLiga club.
Hazard was signed by Los Blancos in 2019 from Chelsea for £88 million.
His four years in Spain, however, came to an end last week when Madrid cancelled his contract.
At the age of 32, Hazard is apparently thinking about retiring after ending his international career during Belgium’s 2022 World Cup campaign.
After Jude Bellingham’s astonishing six-year transfer to the Bernabeu was made official on Wednesday, Kroos, who has won three LaLiga championships and four Champions League crowns during his nine-year tenure at Real Madrid, appeared to make reference to the Belgian flop in a warning to Bellingham.
“We had another player who came for a lot of money and basically let his career die,” Kroos said on his podcast Einfach mal Luppen.
“It was a lot of money, I think everyone would say that wasn’t a good transfer. But let’s be positive.”
Hazard scored only seven goals in 76 appearances for Real Madrid.
