Real Madrid head coach Álvaro Arbeloa has made an important decision regarding one of his key midfielders ahead of the Champions League quarter-final.
Details: According to AS, star English midfielder Jude Bellingham will not be in the starting lineup for the home match against Bayern Munich.
The decision stems from the medical staff’s extreme caution. Bellingham has just returned from a severe left thigh muscle injury that kept him out for 49 days. In his recent matches against Atlético and Mallorca, he played only 16 and 31 minutes, respectively. Arbeloa aims to avoid any risk to his fitness in such a crucial game.
It’s notable that the last time Bellingham started a match was February 1, during a La Liga game against Rayo Vallecano.
Reminder: Real and Chelsea are gearing up for a significant transfer.
