Real Madrid is currently on track to end the season without a big trophy, but they can get some respite with the Club World Cup, which they are one of the favorites to win this summer. But there is a chance that they will enter the tournament without one of their best players.
Jude Bellingham has been providing a shoulder problem for more than a year, in which the original injury took place in November 2023 during a competition between Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano. And since then, the English International Armor-like band has worn in the affected area, the amount of which has gradually increased to guarantee protection against further worsening.
The situation will come to an end this summer, while Bellingham will be ended, but as has reported relevant, it is not clear when he will go under the knife.
Bellingham would be set aside for a few weeks when undergoing an operation, so he has not yet had it. If he were waiting after the conclusion of Real Madrid's participation at the World Cup club, it would be inevitable that he misses the start of the 2025-26 season, something that club bosses would like to avoid.
As such, there is also the possibility that Bellingham will be operated on at the end of the season, but before the World Cup Club. In this case he would not travel to the United States, but it would be good for the preseason.
In the last scenario, Bellingham would already undergo surgery next week. The defeat in El Clasico would ensure that Real Madrid de la Liga title misses out, and with the domestic season in principle in this case there is room for the operation that takes place as quickly as possible The club itself is not enthusiastic about this.
Bellingham himself wants to undergo surgery as soon as possible, which is understandable given the pain in which he has played in the last 18 months. It is still to be seen whether he will go under the knife in May, June or July.
