A subsequent scan revealed the problem to be more serious than was first realised and Hazard could now be out for up to eight weeks, a timescale that would affect his pre-season preparations with Chelsea.

Belgium are top of World Cup Qualifying Group H, two points ahead of Greece, after winning four and drawing one of their five matches but they must now do without their talismanic playmaker.

Watch Estonia v Belgium on Friday. Coverage begins on Sky Sports 3 HD at 7:40pm.
