Ancelotti tells Madrid players not to force Bellingham in training

Real Madrid are aware that Jude Bellingham is one of their greatest assets this season. The former Borussia Dortmund midfielder has been out of action for several weeks due to a shoulder injury.

As a result, Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti has told Madrid's players not to tackle the 20-year-old hard in training sessions over the next few days to allow him to recover, according to 'Relevo'.

The same media outlet reports that the Englishman has been part of the teams that always carried the ball in the exercises proposed by Ancelotti.

The Spanish giants want Bellingham to be available for their next La Liga game against Cadiz but it is uncertain whether he will play as a starter or as a substitute. The English midfielder could play some minutes as a substitute but is expected to be reserved for the Champions League game against Napoli.
