Real Madrid

<p>Bellingham was on song for Real Madrid as Los Blancos came back from a second-half deficit to win 4-1 against Espanyol. However, the English midfielder has picked up an issue with his shoulder yet again.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The Real Madrid superstar had dislocated his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jude-bellingham-injury-fear-why-real-madrid-star-three-months-out-england-ballon-d-or-contender-euro-2024/blt299f148b93abece9" target="_blank">shoulder late into last season and had reportedly planned to undergo surgery after Euro 2024</a>. However, the Three Lions midfielder had been wearing shoulder support throughout and had decided against the invasive treatment as he felt recovered. Ancelotti has now revealed that Bellingham had stopped wearing the support a month ago but could once again have triggered his injury against Espanyol.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking to the media, Ancelotti said: “Bellingham has always played with a shoulder protector. He took it off a month ago because he was fine, but today he has had the problem again.</p><p>"Tonight he has resolved it very well; we will see how he feels tomorrow. I think it won’t be a problem, although he has to take care of himself, obviously."</p>

WHAT ANCELOTTI SAID

<p>Real Madrid face Alaves up next in La Liga and it is possible that Bellingham may be rested for the clash when the two sides face off on Tuesday, September 24.</p>
