SUMMARY
- Jude Bellingham faces allegations of insulting Mason Greenwood during a match.
- Getafe has reported Bellingham's alleged insult to La Liga officials.
During Real Madrid’s regular derby triumph over Getafe on February 1st, fans claimed Jude Bellingham had made a stunning insulting remark directed at Mason Greenwood. Jude has been among Real Madrid’s finest players in the 2023–2024 campaign.
After agreeing with the club that it would be best for him to resume his career elsewhere following his arrest on suspicion of several offenses, including attempted r*pe, in January 2022, Greenwood left Manchester United on loan last summer. He joined Getafe CF for the 2023-24 season and has done exceptionally well for them.

That isn’t nearly as significant as Bellingham’s influence since leaving Borussia Dortmund, though. Some viewers claimed that the match, which featured the two England internationals competing against one another, featured graphic scenes. Upon finishing a forceful challenge on the 22-year-old, Bellingham came into focus on the camera, and some fans thought she mouthed the word ‘r*pist’ towards the Getafe forward.
Since there is no hard proof whether he has said it or not, the video and his lip movements seem to utter the word. Not only that, Jude was also reported to La Liga for the same incident. It remains to be seen now where this lies.
Jude Bellingham reported to La Liga after insult toward Mason Greenwood

The TV camera saw Bellingham uttering a two-syllable word in Greenwood’s direction after the ball left the play area, albeit the audio recording did not fully capture the midfielder’s words. Following the game, Getafe reportedly asked the La Liga delegate present to include Bellingham’s alleged slur in the official game report. This might lead to the opening of an investigation into the event, according to Cadena SER.
Getafe manager takes back his words regarding Jude Bellingham and Mason Greenwood
Reversing his earlier remarks last week, Jose Bordalas now states that Jude Bellingham didn’t counsel Mason Greenwood to relocate to Spain. After the Crown Prosecution Service dropped several of the criminal accusations against Greenwood, 21, earlier this year, he was able to return to his professional life.

Bordalas said after Greenwood’s debut, “I had said that Mason Greenwood came to Getafe because he had spoken with Jude Bellingham. They have clarified to me that it was not the case.” The recent incident that took place between Jude and Mason surely confirms that they did not have a conversation before this.
