Real Madrid are set to appeal Jude Bellingham’s sending off following their 2-2 draw with Valencia and the club intend on citing an incident involving Mason Greenwood when they do.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side went 2-0 down in the first half at the Mestalla on Saturday, with Hugo Duro and Roman Yaremchuk on target for the hosts.

The La Liga leaders fought back however, and a brace from Vinicius brought them level.

Los Blancos continued their hunt for a winner into stoppage time, and their persistence appeared to have been rewarded when Bellingham headed home at the death.

Though the ball crossed the line, referee Jesus Gil had already blown the final whistle, and Bellingham was subsequently shown a straight red card as he and his teammates surrounded the match official.

Bellingham is now set to miss Real’s clash with Celta Vigo next week, and the ban could be extended if an appeal is ultimately unsuccessful.

However, the club are confident that the straight red will be overturned just as Greenwood’s was earlier this season.

The Manchester United loanee was one of three Getafe players to be sent off in the club’s defeat to Rayo Vallecano in January.

Greenwood had been shown a straight red for dissent but the decision was later rescinded on appeal when it was shown he said ‘f***sake’ in frustration at not being given a foul and had not directed his expletive at the official.

Ancelotti weighed in on Bellingham’s situation following the result at the weekend.

‘He didn’t insult the referee,’ He said. ‘He was respectful. He spoke in English and just said: “It was a f***ing goal”.’

Bellingham has enjoyed a hugely successful maiden campaign in Spain since joining Los Blancos from Borussia Dortmund in the summer.

The England international is currently enjoying his most prolific season to date and currently sits top of the league’s scoring charts with 16 goals in 22 appearances.
