Jude Bellingham Sparks Injury Fears with Absence from Real Madrid Training
Tension is mounting at Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training complex after Jude Bellingham was notably absent from this morning’s session, raising fresh injury concerns at a critical point in the La Liga title race.
Manager Carlo Ancelotti addressed the media shortly after training, confirming Bellingham’s absence but offering limited details. The 20-year-old has been a driving force behind Madrid’s title push this season, tallying 18 league goals and producing numerous match-winning displays. His absence comes as a significant worry with only a few matches remaining.
“We preferred to keep Jude inside for treatment as a precaution,” Ancelotti explained. “He felt something after the last game, and with such important fixtures ahead, we’re not taking any risks.”
With Barcelona still hot on their heels, Los Blancos are preparing for a challenging away fixture this weekend—one that could define the title run-in. Losing Bellingham, even temporarily, would be a substantial blow to Madrid’s rhythm, both in midfield control and goal-scoring power.
Pressed further, Ancelotti stayed measured: “We’ll see how he responds tomorrow. It’s nothing serious, but we’re monitoring it day by day.”
While no official decision has been made on Bellingham’s availability for the weekend, fans and pundits alike are anxiously awaiting updates. His influence on the pitch extends beyond stats—he’s become a symbol of resilience and composure in high-stakes moments.
In Bellingham’s absence, Luka Modrić and Eduardo Camavinga took on a more prominent role in training, hinting at possible replacements should the Englishman not recover in time.
With both a La Liga title and a Champions League semifinal on the line, Real Madrid can ill afford to lose their midfield talisman. Supporters will be hoping this is merely a precaution, not the start of a bigger problem.
Stay tuned for updates from Valdebebas as Bellingham’s status becomes clearer.
