Bellingham was given a rapturous reception by Real Madrid fans when he took to the pitch in the 89th minute.
Bellingham’s physique has noticeably changed during his time on the sidelines, according to مثل. The midfielder was asked to bulk up and gain muscle last season in a bid to protect his strengthen his shoulder and stop him from dislocating it again. He followed a specific training plan to gain muscle mass but that has now ended after his surgery.

He has an incredible range of movement, and the more we can find him, the better our performance. The Club كأس العالم was a different experience. With him and [Eduardo] Camavinga, we have two additional options, two top-class players.”
