Real Madrid could be set to make one of the most shocking moves of the summer transfer window. Jude Bellingham, one of the biggest stars of the team and of world football, has been put up for sale in a context that few could have imagined just a few months ago.
The 22-year-old English midfielder is not having his best time at Real Madrid. His performances have declined compared to his spectacular first season, and injuries have affected his consistency and impact on the team.
After a brilliant debut at Real Madrid, where he became one of the great sensations of European football, Bellingham has lost relevance in the current season.
Physical discomfort has been a determining factor. The Englishman has been unable to find the consistency needed to show his best form, which has directly affected his performance on the pitch.
Furthermore, his impact on the game has diminished. Far from being the complete midfielder who dominated every aspect of the game, this season he has looked more inconsistent and less influential in key moments.
This context has prompted the club to reconsider its situation, especially considering the market value that the player still retains.
Despite his decline in form, Bellingham remains one of the most sought-after players in the world. His age, talent and potential keep him undiminished in the transfer market.
Several Premier League clubs are closely monitoring his situation. Among them are Manchester United and Chelsea, two teams willing to make a significant investment to secure his services.
Figures close to 150 million euros are being discussed, an amount that would allow Real Madrid to carry out a very important operation on an economic level.
A return to England could be an attractive option for the player, who has already demonstrated his level in the Bundesliga before moving to La Liga.
