Injury Setback: Real Madrid Manager Confirms Fitness Concerns for Jude Bellingham
Lost points weren’t the only thing worrying Real Madrid after the game. Even Jude Bellingham appeared to notice something was wrong.
Bellingham has been the talisman for Real Madrid this season. Therefore, the team won’t want him to miss too much time due to injury.
Ancelotti has stated that the Englishman would be undergoing medical testing for his shoulder injury. After the game, Real Madrid reportedly commented (as cited by GOAL):
“Bellingham has a problem with his shoulder. He will undergo medical tests tomorrow. I hope he can play on Wednesday against Braga.”
Bellingham has an injury, according to Real Madrid’s manager.
The full scope of the problem has yet to be determined. The fact that Bellingham played the entire game against Rayo Vallecano gives hope that the injury is not significant and that he will be able to continue playing.
The upcoming games for Real Madrid are crucial. Perhaps their forthcoming Champions League match against SC Braga is not as crucial as they had hoped, and they can afford to rest Bellingham. They’re behind Girona in the league standings and need him to catch up. Valencia, now in tenth place, is up next for them.
As a matter of fact, Bellingham has been their team’s leading goal scorer this year. Los Blancos won’t have nearly as much success scoring without him.
