Jude Bellingham at risk of Champions League ban as Real Madrid star handed two-match La Liga suspension

Jude Bellingham at risk of Champions League ban as Real Madrid star handed two-match La Liga suspension

Jude Bellingham could be facing a Champions League ban in addition to his La Liga suspension.

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham is at risk of a Champions League ban in addition to his La Liga suspension.

Bellingham has been banned for two games in the league following on from his red card against Valencia on Saturday.

The former Borussia Dortmund midfielder thought he had scored a dramatic winner right at the death at the Mestalla.

He headed home a Brahim Diaz cross from the right but the referee Gil Manzano had already blown the whistle for full-time seconds before.

That prompted an utter eruption from Bellingham, who was shown a red card for his protests.

Carlo Ancelotti claimed that Bellingham said, "It's a f****** goal" to the official and will now miss upcoming games Celta Vigo and Osasuna.

Bellingham is able to play in the Champions League second leg against RB Leipzig on Wednesday.

However, the 20-year-old is not far off being hit with a European suspension. He has been carded twice in this season's Champions League against Napoli and Union Berlin.

One was for dissent, while the other was brandished for his part on a momentary flare-up with Rani Khedira.

And as per Get Football News, Bellingham will be forced to face a one-game ban if he receives another booking against Leipzig.

A single yellow means he will not be able to play in the quarter-final first leg if Real progress.

The same applies to teammate Edouardo Camavinga, who has also been booked twice in the Champions League this term.

Bellingham's red card was appealed by Real but the club were unsuccessful as a ban and fine - £513 for the player and £598 to the club - was enforced.

Real's top scorer was accused of showing "contempt or disregard" to the referee and his next league outing for Los Blancos is likely to come after the international break when the leaders take on Athletic Bilbao away from home.
