But after hobbling off the field with what appeared to be an ankle injury, the England star is worried about his fitness.

In their match against Girona, who began Saturday night just two points behind La Liga leaders Real, Bellingham and his teammates came out firing.

It took Vinicius Jr. just six minutes to get off to the perfect start, hitting a rocket from outside the box.

And with a deft finish ten minutes before halftime, Bellingham increased Real’s lead. The icon from Birmingham’s career took his tally to a whole other level in the 54th minute. With his 16th goal of the year, he now leads LaLiga in goals scored.

But just before his second blow, an opponent’s devastating tackle sent Bellingham sprawling to the ground in pain.

He clutched his ankle in pain as he writhed on the ground. Carlo Ancelotti pulled Bellingham off for Brahim Diaz as soon as he finished his brace. Then Bellingham was seen sitting on the bench, his facial expression troubled.

His ankle was carefully bandaged, and a medic examined it. And Real will now have to wait anxiously to find out if Bellingham will be sidelined for a while.

However, teammates were unaffected by his absence as Rodrygo gave the hosts a 4-0 lead in the 61st minute.

Real is now leading the league by five points and will be optimistic about their chances of unseating Barcelona for the title again.

In order to play RB Leipzig in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 match, they will now go to Germany.

And everyone will be watching Bellingham to see if he’s qualified for the feature.
