JUDE BELLINGHAM has been spotted with a huge contraption on his face during a Real Madrid training session.
The 20-year-old is gearing up for his first season with the Spanish side after making his £115million move from Borussia Dortmund.
Pictures were shared online of the Madrid squad training ahead of the start of the new LaLiga campaign on Saturday.
And it appeared the players were hooked up to breathing apparatus with Bellingham amongst those sporting a mask.
Fans were quick to jump to social media to comment on the strange looking monitoring equipment with many likening the images to Batman villain Bane.
Other fans commented on Bellingham himself with expectations high ahead of his debut season.
