Real Madrid’s lineup for the La Liga 2025-26 opener against Osasuna is out, but Jude Bellingham’s absence immediately sparked concern among fans.

The official timeline for his return has been revealed, but the wait for Madridistas could feel much longer.

As part of the team rebuild, Real Madrid are reportedly targeting a €90M Champions League winner from Paris Saint-Germain to pair with Jude Bellingham for the next season.

As Real Madrid enters a new era stacked with elite talents like Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham, it might surprise some to learn that the player tipped to succeed Lionel Messi as Argentina’s next great No. 10 is not one of the club’s global superstars.

With a month left in the 2025 summer transfer window, the landscape of world soccer has been shaken by Transfermarkt’s updated ranking of the most valuable players on the planet.

With Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham all commanding massive attention, it was natural to assume that Alonso’s project would be centered around one of them.

At just 18 years old, Lamine Yamal has conquered a realm of soccer reserved for global superstars, becoming the most valuable player in world soccer.

In what was expected to be a major youth acquisition, Real Madrid’s move for a 16-year-old midfield prodigy dubbed the "new Jude Bellingham" has sensationally collapsed—and not for the reasons fans would typically expect.

Real Madrid’s young star is finally stepping away from the pitch, at least temporarily.

Bellingham postponed the surgery for nearly two years to avoid affecting Real Madrid and England during a packed schedule, including Euro 2024 and the Club World Cup. He has played through discomfort in 100 matches — 86 with Madrid and 14 with the national team.

As the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup reaches its climax with a blockbuster final between Chelsea and PSG, a curious question has emerged among fans and pundits alike: Why won’t we see a third-place showdown between Real Madrid and Fluminense?

Despite the humbling exit, Los Blancos didn’t walk away empty-handed. Quite the opposite—their tournament run yielded one of the most lucrative prize hauls in club soccer history.

With fierce competition from Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius Junior, one Real Madrid attacker has found himself on the fringes of Xabi Alonso’s plans.

In an age of early fame, high-pressure academies, and fast-track careers, the rise of Jude and Jobe Bellingham offers a refreshing reminder that success doesn't always come from immediate exposure to Europe's biggest clubs.

Jude and Jobe Bellingham were supposed to face off on soccer's global stage. But that highly anticipated duel has been derailed by an unexpected twist.
