Real Madrid’s star midfielder Jude Bellingham is set to miss approximately 12 weeks of action following successful shoulder surgery on July 15, 2025, the club confirmed.
The 22-year-old English international sustained a dislocated shoulder during a La Liga match, an injury that required immediate medical attention and ruled him out of England’s upcoming friendly against France. The procedure, performed by specialists in Madrid, aims to address a recurring issue that had previously sidelined him for three weeks earlier this season, with a recovery timeline projecting his return around mid-October, potentially missing the start of the Champions League group stage.
Bellingham’s absence is a significant blow to Real Madrid, where he has been a linchpin since his £88.5 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund in 2023, contributing 15 goals and 6 assists in the 2024-2025 season.
The injury, initially downplayed as a strain, escalated after MRI scans revealed ligament damage, prompting the surgical decision. Bellingham’s rehabilitation will be closely monitored, with the club eyeing his return for a crucial El Clásico clash, though his World Cup qualifying schedule may also be affected.
