Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has confirmed that after the World Cup World Cup he will undergo surgery on his shoulder to solve a long-term problem. The international of England noted that he was 'ready for his body to be free again'.
Bellingham disrupted his shoulder back in November 2023 in the Santiago Bernabeu against Rayo Vallecano. His shoulder was beaten back in his socket and Bellingham played further, but then he and the club decided to follow a conservative treatment course in the hope that it would heal through rest.
On he played with heavy straps, and finally a shoulder brace, pushing on to Los Blancos to a League and Champions League -Double, and England to the Euro 2024 final. This season it has remained an inconvenience.
After the 3-1 victory of Real Madrid over Pachuca in the club World Cup, in which he scored the opening goal, Bellingham spoke with the press and was asked about his shoulder injury.
“It's alright. I've got to the point now where the Pain isn't so bad, I'm more fed up with it, and having to wear the brace. Having to tug on it, and having players tug on it. It's tiresome obviously, With at all the sowy, with all the sowy thwost I'm ready to sort it out, the surgery, obviously a few days after the final, I'll go in there and have surgery, “he Told managing Madrid.
“I think at the end of my patience I am with the brace, the physios here and the doctors have been incredible, preparing me to play for it, game -out. But I am now where I am ready to have a free shoulder and really a free body.”
It will be a setback for the early months of Xabi Alonso who are in charge of Real Madrid next season. According to Cadena Ser, Bellingham will be out to at least October, and probably the center of it. That is why Bellingham would miss the first two months of the League season and the opening matches of the Champions League campaign. England -Manager Thomas Tuchel will also miss Bellingham for their world cup qualifications against Andorra and Serbia.
