The ease with which Jude Bellingham has adjusted to life at Real Madrid has been remarkable. Within a short of six games, the England international has established himself as the most important player on the club and is an unquestionable starter under Carlo Ancelotti.
Real Madrid would be eight points behind where they are now sitting in both the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League if they did not make the new deal.
Most recently, he scored the game-winning goal in the dying seconds of the team’s match against Union Berlin, which they won 1-0.
Madrid is sounding the alarm.
Due to gastrointestinal troubles, Bellingham was forced to quit before to today’s training session at the Valdebebas, as stated in the most recent report from SPORT.
At this point, it does not seem to be something that warrants major concern. Nevertheless, this can’t be good news for Carlo Ancelotti’s team’s near future, given that they have a match against Atletico Madrid this coming Saturday.
Real Madrid is holding out hope that the player will be well enough to return to training with the squad tomorrow. However, if the issue continues to arise, it is possible that he may be required to sit out the confrontation.
It’s crucial just in front of the net.

Bellingham has already established himself as a key member of Real Madrid’s offensive midfield, but in his brief time with the club up to this point, he has played a variety of positions other than those of a midfielder.
The youthful prodigy has scored six goals and given one assist in his six outings across all competitions, in which he has participated.
His sense in front of goal and talent for getting into the proper position have proven to be essential for Ancelotti’s formation, which is now suffering from the injury suffered by Vinicius Jr.
At first, it was thought that the Brazilian would be able to return in time to play against Atletico Madrid. It has not been determined whether or not the suggestion will be pursued; tomorrow, when he has had more time to process his feelings, a definitive decision will be made.
In the event that Los Blancos participated in the derby without either Vinicius or Bellingham, Carlo Ancelotti would have a significant challenge on his hands.
