THE HEATED conversation between Jude Bellingham and Cesar Azpilicueta towards the end of the Madrid derby have now allegedly been revealed.
Both men were involved in the capital clash on Sunday as Atletico beat Real 3-1 in the LaLiga showdown.
Former Real forward and Chelsea flop Alvaro Morata grabbed a brace for the hosts with Antoine Griezmann getting the other.
The fiery encounter then threatened to boil over in the final few moments as both sets of players clashed.
The trouble ignited when England star Bellingham, 20, caught Atletico’s Angel Correa late in additional time.
As the forward rolled round in pain, Bellingham was confronted by ex-Chelsea skipper Azpilicueta.

The pair were then spotted on camera exchanging words as their respective team-mates jostled with each other.
Now Spanish outlet MARCA has claimed that Azpilicueta shouted at his rival: “Fair play!”
That led Bellingham to hit back with: “Fair play? Come on man, you've thrown the ball four times on the field to waste time.”
Bellingham, who joined Madrid from Borussia Dortmund in a £115m deal this summer, ended up receiving a yellow card for the challenge.

However, Atletico boss Diego Simeone felt he got away with one, saying: “Correa's play, the last one, to me seemed like an expulsion.
“Bellingham's. It seemed hard to me, with his leg up, Correa hitting the ball.
“It seemed dangerous to Angelito but now when I see it I will surely be able to tell you better.”
Bellingham had enjoyed an incredible start to life at the Bernabeu since his big-money move.
He has scored five goals and produced one assist so far in LaLiga.
And he popped up in stoppage time last week to secure a 1-0 win over Union Belin in Madrid’s opening Champions League match.
