Jude Bellingham played a crucial role in Real Madrid’s dominant 4-0 victory over Girona on Saturday.
The English player scored two goals, which once again contributed to his position as the leading goal scorer for Real Madrid this season. Following his second goal, the midfielder had to be replaced due to an injury he had sustained earlier in the match.
Real Madrid conducted diagnostic tests on Bellingham on Sunday, which identified a problem in his left ankle.
Bellingham has garnered substantial backing, not just from his own loyal followers but also from his other colleagues.
During a recent media encounter, Bellingham used the opportunity to express his appreciation for his teammates, specifically highlighting Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo.
“I am extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to play alongside such talented players.” Bellingham expressed admiration for the exceptional qualities of Rodry and Viní. “In my opinion, when Vini Jr is in a favorable state of mind, he is the most exceptional player in the world.”
Carlo Ancelotti reiterated the Englishman’s statement at the post-match news conference. The Italian also praised Vinicius as the preeminent talent globally.
Nevertheless, Bellingham has been the primary striker for Real Madrid this season, netting 20 goals across several tournaments and establishing himself as the top scorer in La Liga.
Bellingham credits his colleagues for this achievement. “Scoring goals and assisting the team always elicits a wonderful sensation when playing at home.” “I am experiencing a profound sense of affection,” said the midfielder.
Real Madrid may have a challenging moment as they navigate through Bellingham’s absence. The Englishman has been excluded for a duration of about three weeks, resulting in his absence from the next Champions League encounter with RB Leipzig.
