Real Madrid and England star Jude Bellingham gives update on long-term shoulder injury

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has gone through the rigors of top-level football for a full season in the Spanish capital and has been almost omnipresent, despite his age. At one point it looked like a shoulder injury might get in the way.

Bellingham’s form declined after he dislocated his shoulder in November 2023, but he continued to play with shoulder protection. There was talk that he might need surgery before or after Euro 2024, but he appears to have escaped further damage.

However, the 21-year-old appears to have suffered no serious damage. Before Real Madrid’s Intercontinental Cup final against Pachuca, he was asked about it.

“Okay, okay. “I’m still in a sling, which is a little uncomfortable, but the overall feeling is pretty good.”

Overall, Real Madrid have suffered serious injuries, something Bellingham said they were working to fix.

“The number of games. The staff is looking for solutions to see what we need, trying to manage it and doing it very well. But the load of minutes accumulates, causes fatigue and that takes its toll. There comes a point that affects performance, especially when you compete against strong rivals and need speed.”

“But it is what it is. We have to play many games and we will try to do our best. In the summer we can rest a lot, but now we have games every three days.”

Real Madrid have so far suffered 27 injuries in 24 games, with Bellingham himself missing almost a month with a hamstring problem. While Carlo Ancelotti recovers players, he will be without Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao for the rest of the season.
