Jude Bellingham made his season debut against Espanyol after recovering from shoulder surgery. Spanish publication AS reported the English midfielder displayed improved fitness compared to his previous campaign. The 37-year-old completed the procedure following the Club World Cup, ending persistent injury problems that plagued him for nearly two seasons. Medical staff addressed concerns that had limited his availability and performance levels.
Real Madrid anticipates Bellingham will match his debut season statistics of 23 goals and 13 assists. The player appears leaner and more athletic than during his second year with the club. Coaching personnel modified his training regimen after the surgical intervention, reducing muscle mass to enhance speed and mobility. This physical transformation aligns with Xabi Alonso's tactical demands for intensive pressing and defensive contributions from attacking players.
Transfer markets value Bellingham at 180 million euros, representing a 50 percent increase since the campaign began. The midfielder will partner with Kylian Mbappe to spearhead Real Madrid's offensive efforts throughout the season.
