JUDE BELLINGHAM has been observed sporting a large contraption on his face during a Real Madrid training session.

After moving for £115 million from Borussia Dortmund, the 20-year-old is getting ready to start his first season with the Spanish team.

The Madrid team’s preseason training sessions for the next LaLiga season have been documented in photos and posted online.

And it looked like the players were using some sort of breathing device, as Bellingham was one of several who were wearing masks.

Many viewers commented on the strange-looking monitoring apparatus on social media, drawing comparisons to Batman’s archenemy Bane.

Others in the audience voiced their excitement for Bellingham’s upcoming inaugural season.

A supporter predicted a “big season ahead.”

But someone else chimed up with, “MACHINE!!!”

The star addition of Carlo Ancelotti’s summer was an English international who is expected to make his debut this coming weekend.

To play the eighth-place team from the previous season, Real must go to Athletic Bilbao.

Bellingham and Madrid have had a mixed pre-season with wins against Manchester United and AC Milan followed by defeats to Juventus and Barcelona.
