Jude Bellingham is AGAIN caught in x-rated rant at an official - just days after Thomas Tuchel admitted his own mother is REPULSED by Real Madrid star's on-pitch behaviour
Jude Bellingham rudely barked and swore at an official yet again in Real Madrid 's Club World Cup opener against Al-Hilal.
The 21-year-old shouted an offensive term at the linesman amid increased focus on his sometimes brash behaviour after England boss Thomas Tuchel admitted his mother finds his on-field demeanour 'repulsive'.
The midfielder berated the linesman after Joao Cancelo kicked the ball against him and out for a throw for the Saudi Pro League side.
But the England star was adamant that it took another nick off the former Manchester City defender, leading him to shout 'our ball, our ball, f*** off' at the linesman.
Bellingham admonished the offical during a hard-fought draw with Ai-Hilal in Madrid's Club World Cup match at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
Real have won the Club World Cup on six occasions, mostly recently in 2022, and Gonzalo Garcia struck first after 34 minutes to give the Spanish giants the lead.

But Los Blancos, who won the competition three years in a row from 2016 to 2018, were pegged back when former Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves struck in an equalising penalty late in the second half.
Federico Valverde then missed a stoppage time penalty, given after a VAR review, to prevent Madrid claiming a win on Trent Alexander-Arnold's debut and Xabi Alonso's first game in charge.
Bellingham grew into the contest as it went on but he was unable to make the difference.
His outburst at the linesman came just eight days after he was panned for kicking a water cooler in rage following the Three Lions' defeat by Senegal.
He chased down the fourth official and booted a water cooler on full-time at the City Ground after his late goal was disallowed.
In an extraordinary interview, Tuchel then revealed that his behaviour can intimidate team-mates because of his over-aggressive manner and have a negative impact on the team.
Bellingham's attitude towards team-mates was also questioned at last summer's Euros.
He was also handed a two-match suspension for swearing at a referee in a 1-1 La Liga draw with Osasuna in February.
He was dismissed by referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero for foul and abusive language but the Englishman was adamant that he had not been abusive towards the referee, who accused the midfielder of telling him: 'F*** you'.
Bellingham's account was that he had said: 'f*** off', but that these words were aimed at himself in frustration, rather than at the match official.
The former Borussia Dortmund player was also caught swearing at the referee during Madrid's 3-1 defeat by AC Milan in the Champions League in November.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid take on Mexican side Pachuca and Red Bull Salzburg in theier next group fixtures in the US.

Spain captain Alvaro Morata demands a return to his former club - despite spell in Turkey saving his marriage to Italian model Alice Campello following post-Euros split
Spain captain Alvaro Morata has demanded a return to his former club - despite his stay in Turkey saving his marriage. Morata, 32, split with his Italian influencer wife Alice Campello, 30, after his country's European Championship win last summer, but they rekindled their relationship in January this year. The glamorous couple met in 2016 and have four young children — Alessandro, Leonardo (twins), Edoardo, and Bella — but announced last August that they were going their separate ways seven years after tying the knot. Referencing the break-up, the model said: 'It was the biggest mistake we've ever made in our lives.' In a separate interview with Hola magazine, Campello admitted that the couple's move to Turkey has strengthened their marriage, with Morata joining Galatasaray on loan from AC Milan at the start of February. Now, however, as quoted by Spanish publication Diario AS, Morata is trying to force through a move to Spain, in the form of his ex-side Getafe. Morata joined Turkish giants Galatasaray in January after revealing he was back with his wife Reports have suggested the star split with Italian model Alice Campello after an argument on the pitch after Euro 2024 Reports of a potential move back to Spain for Morata are thought to have surfaced from Turkey. He then appeared to confirm that that could happen sooner rather than later, saying this week: 'I'm going to do everything I can to play for Getafe... I would like to return to Spain. I'll choose what makes my family happiest.' What makes his family happiest, though, may be staying in Turkey. Campello said: 'I think it's been very good for us to be in a place where we're alone again. 'We're relaxed there, with our family. People don't stop us so much on the street, and we can live a much more normal life, and at this stage of our lives, it's been good for us.' She also said of her relationship: 'We repeat it every day — I don't know how we could have made that decision. This experience has taught us both a lot because we understood what it's like to be without each other.' Morata also opened up on his battle against depression, admitting he almost did not make it to Germany to captain Spain to Euro 2024 glory. The forward, who received heavy criticism from both fans and journalists in the build-up to the tournament, said: 'When you have really tough times, depression, panic attacks, it doesn't matter what job you do, what situation you have in life, you have another person inside that you have to fight against every day and every night.' Getafe president Angel Torres, meanwhile, said: 'It's very nice. Since he left, he's said many times that he wanted to come back.

Tijjani Reijnders ‘can be very important' for Man City
Reijnders joined City from AC Milan last week in a deal worth an initial £46.5million as part of Pep Guardiola's rebuild in response to their disappointing 2024-25 season. The 26-year-old made an impressive debut, playing the full game, as City began their challenge at the Club World Cup with a comfortable 2-0 win over Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia on Wednesday. Central defender Ake said: 'I know him really well and I think he can be very important. 'I think from the first week in training, you could see that he fits in really well and you can see the quality he has. 'He can play in different positions, he can get into the box, he can keep the ball going and moving forward. He has great quality and there's so much more to come. 'He did really well. It was tough circumstances but he kept the ball really well, kept us moving and offensively he was very good.' Ake played 90 minutes himself for the first time since January as City saw off their Moroccan opponents in their Group G opener with first-half goals from Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku. His past season was a frustrating one as he made just 18 appearances in all competitions due to fitness problems. Kicking off our #FIFACWC campaign with three points 🙌🩵 Highlights ⤵️ — Manchester City (@ManCity) June 18, 2025 The 30-year-old said: 'It was very tough. I basically always tried to push, tried to come back as quick as possible but then I got injured again and mentally it can be tough. 'It's never easy but luckily that's done now and hopefully now I can stay fit and keep performing. 'I feel good. I had my first 60 (minutes) with the national team and this was my first 90 in a little while. 'Obviously (I hope there is) more to come but this game was important in the group and it's a good start for me.'
