Bellingham could undergo surgery
However, the season has not been one without ordeals for Bellingham, as he has had to deal with fitness and injury problems during the campaign.
One such problem that has bothered him for the majority of the campaign is a shoulder discomfort that he has been carrying since November last year.

As per the report, the discomfort has been increasing a great deal throughout the final stretch of the season and the midfielder played with a lot of pain.
The reality is that the English midfielder can no longer cope with his ailments and, if they do not subside during the European Championship, he will be forced to undergo surgery.

If he is operated on after the Euros, the 20-year-old will miss Real Madrid’s pre-season and the start of La Liga because the approximate time off is three months.
It will certainly be a blow for Real Madrid but having Bellingham at his fittest levels will be important if they are to repeat the success they achieved this past season.
