Bellingham misses Real Madrid training due to thigh discomfort

Jude Bellingham trained individually on Friday, missing team training with less than two days to go until Real Madrid's La Liga clash against Celta. According to 'EFE', the Englishman stayed inside the facilities after being dealt with a thigh discomfort.

The same source understands that the club are confident Bellingham's issue is not a serious one, and are hopeful to have him back for Saturday's session with the team before Celta Vigo come knocking at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon.

Missing the 21-year-old midfielder would have been a real blow for the Merengues after they were already forced to come to terms with the recent season-ending injuries of Eduardo Camavinga, David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger and Ferland Mendy.

Real Madrid find themselves heavily exposed in defence, with long-term absentees Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao also missing in the backline. The duo continued their respective individual trainings with a possible return before the end of the team in mind.
