That’s the thing, he’s occupying the same spaces as a striker oftentimes. He’s not playing as a CM.

His goal scoring ratio entirely depends on where Madrid wants him to play.

Actually I do expect the scoring to continue as long as he plays in those positions.

He has great finishing, his goal scoring ratio this season is not luck.

If Madrid signs a true 9 and see that the team plays better with Bellingham on the center of the pitch, then yeah he’s not going to score as often

But this season? I’d bet he’s going to destroy Lampard’s record.
