Bellingham set for summer surgery as Club World Cup approaches

  • Jude Bellingham, the 21-year-old Real Madrid midfielder, is expected to have surgery on his shoulder following the conclusion of the Club World Cup tournament in the United States this summer.
  • Bellingham sustained a dislocated shoulder injury during a 2023 match against Rayo Vallecano and has played through pain for 18 months while avoiding surgery.
  • Real Madrid delayed surgery to prevent sidelining him during key campaigns, but the consistent discomfort has led to a consensus for the procedure following the Club World Cup.
  • The surgery will require an estimated 12-week recovery period, likely sidelining Bellingham for the beginning of Real Madrid’s 2025-26 La Liga campaign and some of England’s upcoming World Cup qualifying matches.
  • This plan allows Bellingham to use the summer break for recovery while Real Madrid competes in the Club World Cup, aiming for his full fitness ahead of a demanding season.
