While the Vinicius Jr saga continues to dominate discussions in Madrid, Real Madrid now faces another challenge with Jude Bellingham’s contract situation.
Real Madrid star salaries create tension in the locker room
The Brazilian winger recently turned down a lucrative €1 billion offer from Saudi Arabia and is negotiating a contract extension. Currently earning €15 million net per year—equal to Kylian Mbappé—his potential salary increase could disrupt the club’s financial balance.

Bellingham, a key figure in the squad, earns significantly less, with a salary between €8 and €10 million per year. Aware of this gap, his representatives recently approached the club to discuss a raise, believing his performances justify a higher wage. While his teammates support his request, Real Madrid must navigate this issue carefully to maintain its salary structure. As the club prepares to face Atlético Madrid in the Champions League, this internal dilemma adds another layer of pressure.
