Real Madrid is grappling with ongoing challenges this season, both on and off the field. The team has struggled with performance issues, and morale took a further hit after a significant loss to Barcelona.
Amid these struggles, some frustrations have surfaced among key players. Reports from Spanish media suggest that Jude Bellingham feels overlooked, as club management has centered their focus on Vinicius Junior. This comes after Vinicius lost the Ballon d’Or to Manchester City's Rodri, a decision that stirred controversy within the Real Madrid camp. Some officials reportedly feel that Dani Carvajal might have been a better candidate if not for the club’s strong backing of Vinicius.
Bellingham’s situation is also influenced by the club’s ongoing pursuit of Kylian Mbappe, which has raised questions about his role in the team. While Coach Carlo Ancelotti is said to be helping Bellingham stay focused, he’s encouraging him to keep supporting the squad during these challenging times.
As speculation about Mbappe’s potential arrival continues, discussions are unfolding about how he and Vinicius might complement each other on the field.
