Real Madrid must sign Neymar to help Eden Hazard according to a Spanish news publication Marca.
Real Madrid have had tough last 12 months. After the high of winning three Champions League in a row.
They had an average last season with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo last summer.
With the loss of their Greatest player in their history, Los Blancos looked way behind both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Zinedine Zidane’s drew their first home game of their season against Real Valladolid.
The reaction regarding their result has not been great from Media especially Marca who believe Neymar is the only one who can save Madrid.
The Madrid based paper believes that the Brazilian in needed as Eden Hazard is “not a goal scorer”.
“Against Real Valladolid, Real Madrid played a good first half, however, it was not enough to take the lead.
“Although Hazard was missing, who is a star, he is not a goalscorer like Neymar, not even close, in fact. After the break, Zinedine Zidane’s team again showed the same deficiencies of last season, despite having spent 300 million euros this summer.
“That’s why Los Blancos need Neymar. And that’s why Messi and the entire Barcelona dressing room have been pressuring the club for weeks so that they can be the ones to sign him and not Real Madrid, because they know what he is capable of.”

In fact, the Madrid-based paper believe the Brazilian is needed so much because summer signing Eden Hazard is ‘not a goal scorer’.
One look at the Madrid squad with having players like Benzema, Bale, James, Jovic, Vinicius Jr. and Hazard in their team.
There is enough firepower in the squad and no single player can fill the void left by Ronaldo.
They all need to put in a shift and score goals. Also if Neymar is signed where will he play and then why 100 million pound were spend on Hazard.
Last season the Belgian had a hand in 31 goals in the Premier League more than any other player.
Although Neymar has been a better goal scorer over his career, Hazard’s number will definitely rise up in Real’s system.
