Jude Bellingham has been dropped by the La Liga leaders Real Madrid

Jude Bellingham has been reportedly dropped from the La Liga giants Real Madrid squad ahead of their upcoming league clash against Real Sociedad. Reports also curtailed that he was not involved in the team’s latest training season before the game. The Los Blancos currently sits on the top of this season’s La Liga table with 81 points to their name.

They are well clear with 11 points of the second place Barcelona, who they recently defeated in the El Clasico. However, a win against Real Sociedad in their next fixture would see them further establish their hopes for the league’s title this season. But with one of their top performers Jude Bellingham likely to miss the match, Carlo Ancelotti would have to consider other alternatives to replace his in-form attacking midfielder.

The reason behind the 20-year-old being dropped from the club’s squad before their trip to the Anoeta Stadium is being reported to be a gastroenteritis issue with the player. However, his recovery would likely be a short-tenured one and he may likely be available for the club’s UCL clash trip to Allianz Arena to face Bayern Munich. With the form that he is in this season, that will be a huge relief for the Los Blancos’ team management.
