Bellingham at risk of missing the start of the 2025/26 season

Real Madrid won the first match at the FIFA Club World Cup. In the early morning of June 23, Real defeated Pachuca 3-1 in the second match, Group F of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™.

In a press conference after the 3-1 win over Pachuca at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ in the early morning of June 23, Bellingham shared about his health condition.

The England international said Raul Asencio's sending off in the seventh minute made the game more difficult for Real Madrid. "It made the game more difficult. He's a young defender. It's normal and it's not a big deal. However, the character of our game is very important. We have to take responsibility together," Bellingham stressed.

Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois had an excellent day, constantly blocking dangerous shots from his opponents. Bellingham said: "They had a lot of shots, but Courtois was really good. We won without playing a perfect game. The important thing is to continue to follow the tactics and the direction that the coach has set."

Regarding his health, Bellingham added: "I feel better. The pain in my shoulder has reduced a lot. But I'm fed up with having to play with a shoulder brace. The hot weather also makes my body dehydrated from sweating. I have planned to have surgery after this tournament."

Bellingham also admitted that the doctors and physiotherapists at Real Madrid have been very patient with him, forcing the midfielder to become more responsible for his injury.

BeINSports predicts Bellingham will miss the opening stages of the 2025/26 season due to injury. Manager Xabi Alonso is planning his personnel in case Bellingham is absent.

If Real Madrid reach the final of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™, the team will only complete the tournament on July 13. Bellingham will immediately undergo surgery a few weeks later to return in time for the new season.
