On 16 February, Hazard made his return from injury and started against Celta Vigo in La Liga. He earned a penalty after being fouled by Celta's goalkeeper Rubén Blanco in the area, which Sergio Ramos converted to make it 2–1 to the hosts. Hazard went off to a standing ovation in the 73rd minute. Six days later, he suffered a "fracture to his right distal fibula" in his ankle during Madrid's 1–0 defeat against Levante and was forced off the pitch in the second half. The ankle injury forced Hazard to miss Madrid's two biggest games of the season, the Champions League Round of 16 clash against Manchester City and the second league El Clasico. In early March, Hazard's ankle was operated on in Dallas and he was expected to be out for three months, meaning his season would likely be over. After La Liga restarted in June after a three-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hazard was available for selection. On 14 June, in Madrid's first league game after the break, Hazard assisted Sergio Ramos against Eibar in a 3–1 win at the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium. At the end of the season he had made 16 league appearances, as Madrid won the 2019–20 La Liga.
