Real Madrid have officially confirmed that England international Jude Bellingham has suffered an injury and is expected to be sidelined for around a month, dealing a significant blow to the club at a crucial stage of the season.
The Spanish giants announced that Bellingham picked up the injury during Real Madrid’s match against Rayo Vallecano in Round 22 of La Liga.
The midfielder underwent detailed medical examinations following the game to assess the extent of the problem.
According to the club’s official statement, tests revealed that Bellingham sustained a tear in the semitendinosus muscle of his left thigh.
Real Madrid added that his condition will be closely monitored in the coming days to determine a more precise timeline for his return.
The club’s technical and medical staff are proceeding cautiously to ensure a safe recovery and avoid any risk of aggravating the injury.
The timing of the setback is particularly challenging for Real Madrid, who are entering a decisive phase in both domestic and continental competitions.
Bellingham has been one of the team’s key players this season, playing a central role in midfield and contributing consistently in major matches.
As a result of the injury, Bellingham is expected to miss several important fixtures, including clashes against Valencia, Real Sociedad, Benfica, Osasuna, and Getafe, as well as both legs of the Champions League tie against Benfica.
