VIDEO. Real Madrid fans tensed up. Jude Bellingham is bothered by an old injury again
Today marks the UEFA Champions League final, where Real Madrid will face Borussia Dortmund.
This match holds great significance for every player on both teams, but it is particularly special for Real Madrid's new star, Jude Bellingham. Not only will he be playing against his former team, but the match will also take place in his homeland—England, at the legendary Wembley Stadium in London.
Bellingham is expected to start, as we reported yesterday, but his gesture during yesterday's training session may have caused concern among Real Madrid fans. He was frequently seen clutching and massaging his shoulder.
This issue first arose for the 20-year-old player in November of last year, but surgery was postponed, and he now wears a brace.
It is unlikely that Bellingham will undergo surgery before mid-July, as he is set to play for the England national team in the European Championship, where he is expected to be a key player for Gareth Southgate's squad. Real Madrid surely hopes that Bellingham's shoulder problem will not impede his performance in today's match.
