Jude Bellingham Rings Alarm Bells On His Injury Status

Jude Bellingham has divided the debate amongst the Real Madrid fans this season. The English midfielder has been the epitome of class and consistency since his move to the club in 2023. However, recent lapses in form and injuries have resulted in him slowing down on his level. Now, the injuries don’t seem to go away as he is under a major fitness question mark ahead of the Celta Vigo match and the mouth-watering clash with FC Barcelona.

The reports claim that Bellingham has missed the training sessions in preparation for the FC Barcelona clash. This has triggered worries within the Real Madrid camp, which considers him an important player at the club. The English midfielder has been pivotal in El Clásico previously, scoring a brace at the Camp Nou to win Real Madrid the match. He was pivotal in doing the league double over the Catalans, scoring a 91st-minute winner against Barcelona in the clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Is Bellingham Fit To Play In The Upcoming Weeks?

According to reports from Relevo, Bellingham had muscular issues during the week. However, the club didn’t take it seriously despite giving him precautionary measures about the situation. The English midfielder did have many injury concerns during the 2023-24 season, which propelled him to become one of the best players in the world. However, Bellingham’s absence from the training sessions has put Real Madrid’s preparation for the Celta Vigo clash in doubt.

With El Clasico not far away, the former Borussia Dortmund man’s fitness has become a huge question mark. On the other hand, Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior have resumed training after having some muscular problems of their own. Bellingham remains a question mark, and his detailed medical report will be shared in the upcoming weeks.

The Injury Crisis

Bellingham is not the only Real Madrid player with an injury issue. Manager Carlo Ancelotti has made many defensive shuffles this season, and he will do it again during the match against Celta Vigo. Fran Garcia and Raul Asencio are integrated into the first team. Meanwhile, Lucas Vasquez will again make himself available for the right-back position. Due to the lack of fit central defenders, Aurelien Tchouameni might have to fill one of the vacant spots once again.
