Jude Bellingham reportedly suffered a minor injury set back during Real Madrid’s 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League.
Jude Bellingham Injury News
The England international returned to his home nation in hopes of picking up a big European victory against Liverpool – but his side were dominated by Arne Slot’s men.
Goals from Cody Gakpo and Alexis Mac Allister were enough to secure all three points for the hosts and matters were made even worse for Los Blancos after the match.
Reports suggest that several of Real Madrid’s squad left Anfield with injuries, including Bellingham who is said to have suffered a minor set back.
Eduardo Camavinga’s injury, which forced the Frenchman off midway through the second-half, is set to be more serious and will mean he misses their La Liga clash against Getafe.
Brahim Diaz also suffered a minor injury during the defeat in Merseyside and the club are set to begin tests on both the Moroccan and Bellingham.

The former Birmingham City star has dealt with multiple injuries during his time in Madrid, having to wear padding over his shoulder for an extended period of time.
Madrid’s injury issues have increased over the past few weeks, with Dani Carvajal, Éder Militão, Vinícius Júnior, Aurélien Tchouaméni, Rodrygo and David Alaba all missing the match against Liverpool.
This news over Bellingham’s current physical state will cause huge concern for the club, as he has already missed six games through injury this season.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side are currently 24th in the new Champions League format, which is the final qualification place and Los Blancos have now lost three European matches from the opening five.
The current holders of the UCL trophy were the favourites to win the competition on UK betting sites at the beginning of the season.
However, their form in Europe so far has caused Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona and Arsenal to be priced as more likely options.
