Jude Bellingham has publicly apologized after Real Madrid`s Champions League elimination.
The 21-year-old English midfielder played in the match where Real Madrid was defeated 2-1 by Arsenal.
Real Madrid entered the game confidently, aiming to overcome a three-goal disadvantage from the first leg.
Bellingham had even described the game as "a night made for Madrid".
However, Carlo Ancelotti`s team failed to seriously challenge Arsenal.
Following the loss, Bellingham expressed on Instagram: "We simply did not meet the club`s expectations in either game.
"We apologize to Madridistas, we understand the importance of these nights and this competition to you.
"There are still opportunities to salvage this season, but unity is essential. Real Madrid will return stronger!"
Real Madrid is currently second in LaLiga, trailing Barcelona by four points with seven games remaining.
The two teams are scheduled to play in Catalonia on May 11.
Real Madrid is also set to compete against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final on April 26.
Reports suggest that Ancelotti might leave Real Madrid after this final.
Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been mentioned in connection with Real Madrid, with Spanish media reporting his interest in the position.
Ancelotti commented on his future after the Arsenal defeat: "The club might decide to replace me this year, or next year when my contract expires.
"When my time here concludes, I will remain grateful to this club.
"It could be tomorrow, in 10 days, a month, or a year, but whether or not my contract ends is not my concern.
"We have often experienced success and won titles, but we must also handle setbacks.
"We must accept this defeat because Arsenal performed better than us over the two legs."
