Fresh Jude Bellingham injury update before Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad

A fresh insight into the wellbeing of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has this week been forthcoming online.

Midfielder Bellingham is for his part of course sidelined at present, owing to a blow suffered during a training session last month.

As per a statement across Real Madrid’s official website and social media platforms:

‘Following tests carried out today on Jude Bellingham by Real Madrid’s medical team, the player has been diagnosed with an injury to the plantaris muscle in his right leg. His progress will be monitored.’

Bellingham’s problem has since been followed by a whole host of further personnel blows in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, with the likes of Ferland Mendy, Dani Ceballos, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Éder Militão now sidelined, too.

Safe to say, then, that all of a Blancos persuasion will no doubt be overjoyed to hear of a positive update surfacing on their side’s English international.

As per a report from Real insider Sergio Quirante of DAZN:

‘Bellingham’s physical condition has improved a lot over the last few days.’

The hope, in turn, is that the 21-year-old will be given the green light to take his place in the Spanish champions’ matchday squad to face Real Sociedad this weekend.
