Bellingham Out of Real Madrid vs Benfica Playoff Match Because of Injury
Jude Bellingham Suffers Injury
Jude Bellingham has sustained an injury during the match held on Sunday, affecting the semitendinosus muscle in his left leg.
Expected Recovery Time
This injury is expected to keep the Stourbridge-born player off the field for approximately one month, resulting in his absence from Real Madrid’s upcoming league games as well as the Champions League fixture against Benfica.
He will certainly miss the first leg, and the chances of him participating in the second leg are looking quite slim.
Match Incident
The incident occurred in the ninth minute of the game when the talented midfielder was unable to keep up with a sprint. He immediately clutched his thigh, signaled for a substitution, and was quickly replaced by Brahim Diaz.
