Jude Bellingham agrees to new Real Madrid contract

Jude Bellingham has agreed to extend his stay at Real Madrid until June 2031, according to Spanish outlet AS. 

The 23-year-old’s current deal will not expire until 2029, but the club were eager to tie him down to a new contract. 

Negotiations over improved terms started towards the end of last season, with both parties on the same page from the beginning. 

The England international feels increasingly settled in Spain, while club supporters are also happy with his work rate and leadership. 

Bellingham has established himself as a key first-team star at Madrid since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2023. 

He has helped his team win a La Liga title and a Champions League, bagging 49 goals in 150 appearances across all competitions. 

Bellingham struggled with a shoulder injury last year that hurt his performances on the pitch. 

The issue eventually required surgery that kept him out of the game for several weeks. 

The former Dortmund star hit top form at the end of last season and carried that momentum into the World Cup for England. 

He scored seven goals in seven starts, helping his country claim third place at the tournament.  

Bellingham has made an excellent start to the 2026-27 season under manager Jose Mourinho, making six direct goal contributions in nine starts.
