As: Real Madrid wants Bellingham to lose weight appropriately, which will help improve speed and press more at high positions +

Hupu September 23 According to Spanish media "As", the Real Madrid coaching staff and physical fitness team believe that appropriate weight loss will help Bellingham improve his performance on the court, especially in terms of improvements in movement speed and movement flexibility.

Bellingham underwent shoulder surgery after the end of the Club World Cup. This injury has continued to bother him for nearly two years and directly affected his competitive state. The club hopes to help him return to his highlight level when he joined Real Madrid in his first season - that season he handed in 23 goals and 13 assists.

Compared with last season, Bellingham's body shape has undergone significant changes and he looks thinner overall. In Real Madrid's first two seasons, he deliberately increased muscle mass to strengthen the stability of his vulnerable shoulder and prevent dislocation and recurrence. However, according to the training and body management plan developed by the new coach Xavi Alonso team, the current strategy shifts to weight control to enhance its mobility and response speed in the game.

Alonso's tactical system requires players to invest more energy on the defensive end, especially in the opponent's high-level pressing and actively regaining the ball's rights. This style of play requires the forward line to maintain stronger initiative and coverage when pressing, and this idea has been initially reflected in the six games at the beginning of this season. Bellingham, which has a lighter body, will be able to better adapt to this high-intensity and high-consumption tactical requirement.

As the season deepens, Bellingham is expected to take on a more critical role in Alonso's roster. Young players such as Mastantono or Guerre may face more intense competition for appearances. Bellingham's personal goal is also very clear: to play an important deputy around Mbappe, share the responsibility for scoring, and reshape the threat combination on the offensive end.
