The atmosphere within Real Madrid has been tense since the loss to Arsenal, according to the program “El Chiringuito,” which cited an unfortunate incident that occurred in the club’s training session on Friday.
Antonio Rüdiger made a very strong tackle on Jude Bellingham in training, sparking a violent dispute between the two.
Real Madrid players were forced to intervene to separate the two players after a physical altercation broke out between them, highlighting the extent of the tension, given that such incidents rarely occur at Valdebebas.
Real Madrid officials downplayed the incident, describing it as just a matter of stadium tensions. They emphasized that the relationship between the two players is good, and the crisis ended with the end of training.
Rüdiger and Bellingham both participated in Real Madrid’s match against Alavés on Sunday, which ended with a goal from Eduardo Camavinga.
The duo are also expected to start against Arsenal at the Santiago Bernabéu, where Real Madrid needs a four-goal victory to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals.
