Real Madrid boss offers Jude Bellingham injury update

Jude Bellingham’s Stellar Form Continues as Real Madrid Prepares for El Clasico

Real Madrid maintained their perfect start in the Champions League with a hard-fought 2-1 away victory against SC Braga. Rodrygo opened the scoring, ending his goal drought, while Jude Bellingham, who’s been in sensational form, added another goal to his impressive tally.

Bellingham’s impact since joining from Borussia Dortmund in the summer has been nothing short of extraordinary, exceeding even the most optimistic expectations of fans. According to Transfermarkt stats, he has notched up 11 goals and provided 3 assists in just 12 appearances for Real Madrid this season.

Real Madrid fans briefly held their breath when Bellingham left the pitch against SC Braga in the 89th minute, appearing to have physical issues. Fortunately, their worries were put to rest by Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti in his post-match press conference:

“Jude Bellingham is fine. His adductor is a bit overloaded due to the state of the pitch, which was a bit soft. It’s nothing special. He’ll be fine, he’s fit. He’s a bit tired but it’s normal.”

This news will certainly come as a relief to Real Madrid supporters, especially with the first El Clasico of the season looming. Real Madrid and FC Barcelona are both vying for the La Liga title, separated by just one point in the standings. The significance of the upcoming El Clasico in the title race cannot be understated.

While the two giants battle for supremacy, Girona closely trails Real Madrid on goal difference in the title race, and Atletico Madrid, with a game in hand, has the potential to take the top spot, making the competition even more intense.
