BELLINGHAM IDENTIFIES FOUR REAL MADRID PLAYERS WHO MUST RAISE THEIR GAME.

Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has highlighted four players who must rise to the occasion in Kylian Mbappé’s absence.
Speaking ahead of Real Madrid’s Supercopa de España clash with Atletico Madrid on Thursday, Bellingham noted that Mbappé missed the trip to Saudi Arabia due to a knee injury. He stressed that he, along with Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, and Gonzalo García, will need to shoulder greater responsibility.
“It’s down to players like myself, Vini, Rodrygo, and Gonzalo to step up in the absence of Kylian’s huge influence,” Bellingham told Madrid Xtra. “We have to contribute not just with goals, but with our overall play. If we do that, there will be plenty of scoring opportunities for everyone.”
Mbappé has been Real Madrid’s standout performer this season, netting 29 goals and providing 3 assists in 24 appearances.
