Jude Bellingham and Antonio Rüdiger were reportedly involved in a heated exchange during a Real Madrid training session, just days before their crucial Champions League quarter-final second leg against Arsenal.
The incident is said to have been triggered by a forceful challenge from Rüdiger on Bellingham, which led to a sharp reaction from the England international. The situation quickly escalated, prompting teammates to step in and separate the pair before things got out of hand. Fortunately, the altercation was resolved quickly, and both players were able to move on without any lingering issues.
This confrontation comes at a particularly challenging time for Real Madrid. The club is currently trailing Barcelona by four points in La Liga with only seven games left to play. Additionally, they face a tough task in the Champions League after a 3-0 defeat in the first leg against Arsenal.
Their injury woes continue to mount, with key defenders Dani Carvajal, Éder Militão, and Ferland Mendy all sidelined, while midfielder Eduardo Camavinga is suspended. However, the return of Aurelien Tchouaméni offers a timely boost to the squad.
Despite the tension, such training ground incidents are often seen as a reflection of players’ high intensity and commitment. Both Bellingham and Rüdiger are expected to be available for the decisive second leg at the Santiago Bernabéu, where Real Madrid will be looking to overturn their deficit and keep their European hopes alive.
