The English international, which will miss the last liga match of the season this weekend against Real Sociedad, is expected to be operated before the start of the 2025-26 season.
Real Madrid participating in the Club World Cup in the United States, any decision concerning Bellingham shoulder operation should be postponed at the end of its participation. The most likely date for the operation would therefore be in mid-July, but if this is the case, we fear that the 21-year-old is missing an important part of the new season.
Real Madrid fears prolonged absence from Jude Bellingham
As Sport reports, Real Madrid fears that Bellingham will be absent up to three months. The shoulder operation he needs will certainly be heavy, given his injury for more than 18 months. A long period of inactivity will therefore probably be necessary.
Operation probably planned after the club World Cup
The club believing that the start of the new season is the best period for the star midfielder, it would not be surprising that he was operated in July. At Real Madrid, we understand that Bellingham cannot continue to play with this shoulder operation, because it clearly has an impact on its performances, which disappointed the club.
It remains to be seen how Real and Bellingham will tackle the question of the operation. It is unlikely to go under the scalpel before the club World Cup. At this point, everything suggests that it will miss the pre-season and the start of the new season due to the July operation.
