The England midfielder completed the final training session ahead of the Clasico
There was fear at Real Madrid's Valdebebas training center that Jude Bellingham would miss the Clasico.
That was, until the club's medical services solved a 'problem' of incalculable magnitude for Carlo Ancelotti.
The big news from Real Madrid's last training session before the trip to Barcelona was that Jude Bellingham's physical problems with his adductor were just a scare.
«He's fine, he's recovered. Tomorrow he will play,» Carlo Ancelotti confirmed in his pre-match press conference.
«He's made a good recovery since yesterday and they have taken the pressure off him.»
The England midfielder, who stayed in the gym alone on Thursday in order to recover after being substituted against Braga in the 90th minute, completed the Friday session with the rest of his team-mates.
He was seen smiling, which is a usual tone for the former Birmingham City midfielder, and with the desire of someone who knows that he has one of the most important challenges of his Real Madrid career, playing in a Clasico against Barcelona, to come.
«The professionals play well in every game and he knows perfectly well what the Clasico is like. It's a game that everyone watches and one of the most important in the world,» Ancelotti continued.
The Italian coach will be able to count on almost his entire squad for a vital game in the fight for the LaLiga EA Sports leadership.
Arda Guler (who is following a specific plan to improve his fitness) and Dani Ceballos, who will not be available for the visit to Catalonia due to a muscular complaint in his right quadriceps, will both be absent.
