Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham ruled out after international break with foot problem
Star of Real Madrid Jude Bellingham has been the subject of much discussion in recent weeks due to the physical burden placed on the 20-year-old. He has now been ruled out for around a month with a foot problem, just two games into the new season.
Various sources, including Relief and AS Diaryare reported that Bellingham will miss a month of action with a foot problem (plantar fascitis), and will miss a minimum of three weeks. If the injury develops slower than expected, it could take until the city derby against Atletico Madrid to recover on September 29.

He will miss a minimum of games against Real Valladolid, Las Palmas away and Real Betis, as well as England. If the injury does not progress as hoped, then it could also put matches against Real Sociedad away, Espanyol and Alaves in danger, while he is likely to return for Atletico.
Carlo Ancelotti had told the press that he had a knock and was being evaluated, but his injury is a frustrating setback as the Italian tries to set up his new team. After a draw against RCD Mallorca, he will not be happy to be without one of his best players, although it could make it easier to find the balance that he said was missing more quickly for his first match of Liga, because they didn't want to go down anymore. points
