Bellingham had a dream debut campaign with Real Madrid where he scored 23 goals and was the club's second-highest scorer after Vinicius Junior. The England international, however, experienced a dry spell in terms of scoring at the start of the 2024-25 campaign, but since scoring his maiden goal against Osasuna on November 9, the midfielder has found the back of the net in five consecutive league matches, his most recent strike coming in the club's 3-0 win over Girona.

When asked about the 21-year-old's sudden rise in form, manager Ancelotti explained how a change in the dynamics of the team has fuelled the English star into becoming a goal machine of late. Along with scoring goals, the youngster has also been contributing to the team by creating goalscoring chances as he provided three assists in his last five league outings.
WHAT CARLO ANCELOTTI SAID
Speaking to reporters, the Italian coach said: "Not much has changed for him personally. What has changed is the dynamics of the team: now we have more movement up front, and he takes advantage of this. He’s been scoring, which is important, but his attitude has remained the same."
