Bellingham Sets Date for His Departure From Real Madrid, His Contract Renewal Is Up in the Air

The arrival of Bellingham at Real Madrid was marked by the interest of more teams in signing him. In fact, some sources indicated that Liverpool practically had a deal with the Englishman. But he ultimately preferred the Merengues over the millions of the Premier.

However, it seems that this hasn't been forgotten as many speculate about his possible departure from Real Madrid. He has a contract until 2029 but there are several teams interested in paying a fortune for him. This has led to discussions about his future, although they are just rumors.

What does seem to be on the table are Real Madrid's intentions to renew Bellingham. Despite having a contract ahead, the English midfielder could sign a new contract. An option that the Merengue club is considering to secure as soon as possible.

It's not that they are afraid Bellingham might leave Bernabéu prematurely. Rather, their intention is to renew him with a new salary in line with his level. They want Mbappé, Vinicius with his renewal, and Jude to be on the same salary scale.

Bellingham Knows When He Will Leave Real Madrid

Amid all the rumors about his renewal, Bellingham has surprised everyone. He has made statements in which he has set a departure date for his time at Real Madrid. It doesn't seem to be something he is reconsidering, at least in the short term.

"I'm happy in Madrid and I think that for the next 10 or 15 years I'll play dressed in white," he confessed. Therefore, seeing the timeframe he gives, it seems he wants to retire with the Merengue team. Undoubtedly, statements that will be very pleasing to hear for Madridists.

He is not going to listen to the dizzying offers that may come from other teams interested in him. He only thinks about continuing his career at Real Madrid with a long-term view. And within the locker room, they see him as having the makings of a leader, potentially even becoming the captain in the future.
