Real Madrid’s star Jude Bellingham is on track for an earlier-than-expected return from injury, bringing a ray of hope to the team and its supporters. The English dynamo, who has been sidelined since 23rd August, is showing remarkable progress in his rehabilitation, according to journalist Rodra (via Madrid Xtra).
Initially expected to be out of action for five weeks, Bellingham’s positive attitude and unwavering determination have been instrumental in his faster-than-anticipated recovery. By combining gym and pool workouts, he has been able to accelerate his return to fitness. The unexpected benefit of missing the international break has allowed him to focus solely on his rehabilitation.
Potential Early Comeback Against Espanyol
If Bellingham’s recovery continues at this pace, he could potentially make his comeback as early as 21st September against Espanyol. However, the club’s medical staff and management are closely monitoring his progress to avoid any setbacks. There is a possibility that he might be rested for the midweek game against Alaves to ensure a smooth transition back to competitive play.

Bellingham’s Absence Felt by Real Madrid
Real Madrid has keenly felt the absence of their midfield maestro. Manager Carlo Ancelotti has experimented with various players, including Luka Modric, Arda Guler, Brahim Diaz, and Dani Ceballos, in an attempt to fill the void left by Bellingham. However, none have managed to replicate the unique impact he brings to the team’s performance.
Despite being away from the pitch, Bellingham has remained connected with the team and its fans. A recent sighting of him dining at La Buha in La Latina, where he interacted with supporters, signing autographs and taking photos, has helped maintain his bond with the Real Madrid faithful.
