Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham hits out at Xabi Alonso claims

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has taken to social media, to respond to claims of his poor relationship with now former-manager Xabi Alonso.

Tactician Alonso of course brought a close to his short-lived stint on the bench in Spain’s capital early this week.

The move has since sparked widespread chatter, amid claims of alleged unrest between manager and players across the season to date.

One such example was laid bare earlier in the campaign, upon Vinícius Jr. storming down the tunnel whilst fuming with Xabi Alonso during El Clásico.

Also amongst those to have seen his bond with the Spaniard called into question, meanwhile, was the aforementioned Jude Bellingham.

Safe to say, however, that the former Borussia Dortmund man is not willing, on this occasion, to allow the criticism surrounding his name to pass without a fight.

Taking to social media, in a post cited by journalist Fabrizio Romano, Bellingham wrote:

‘Until now I’ve let far too many of these slide… always hoping the truth will come out to light in its own time… But honestly, let me say, what a load of shit.’
