Jude Bellingham confirms availability for upcoming El Clasico clash

Since joining Real Madrid, Jude Bellingham has produced 11 goals in 12 games

In the words of Jude Bellingham, "I will be ready and available for El Clasico," TVE reports.

Jude Bellingham has become, quite simply, one of the top players in the world during his debut season with Real Madrid.

The 20-year-old England star moved to Los Blancos from Borussia Dortmund during the winter, and he has been absolutely fantastic, scoring 11 goals in his first 12 games for the team.

His most recent exploits included a Champions League game-winning goal in the 61st minute against Braga, which helped the team win 2-1 away in Portugal and maintain their pristine record through three games in the group phase.

But in the 89th minute, he was substituted, raising questions about his fitness at that point. The Sporting News has the most recent information on his availability for that season-defining game with El Clasico coming up this weekend.

Tuesday, October 24, in the 89th minute of the weekend victory against Braga, Real Madrid youngster Jude Bellingham was substituted.

Bellingham's withdrawal due to a suspected adductor strain sparked concerns about his availability for Saturday's El Clasico against Barcelona.

Real Madrid supporters shouldn't have wanted to worry about their greatest player's fitness in the days leading up to such a significant match.

When Bellingham's fitness was questioned by Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti after the game, the coach took action to allay concerns about a potentially serious injury. Bellingham is not currently in danger of missing the Real Madrid match against Barcelona, according to manager Ancelotti.

It will be a battle against time for him to rest and recuperate adequately before the crucial La Liga match, which is in five days, but as of right now, it seems like Bellingham's condition is unaffected. However, when the game gets closer, he will undoubtedly be watched very carefully.
