Jude Bellingham’s exceptional start to life at Real Madrid has drawn high praise from club legend Raul and former manager Fabio Capello.
Raul, who is one of Real Madrid’s all-time top goalscorers, believes that Bellingham is destined to become a Bernabeu icon. Speaking ahead of this year’s Laureus Awards, Raul said, ‘Bellingham has impressed me the most given how young he is. He speaks as a veteran already, it’s as if he has already been at Real Madrid for a long time.’
Capello, who also serves as a Laureus Ambassador, echoed Raul’s sentiments, saying, ‘Only the super players can play like him at this age – Messi and some others.’ He lauded Bellingham’s performance in El Clasico, particularly his ability to impact the game in various ways.
Bellingham’s impressive maiden season with Los Blancos has solidified his status as a rising star in the football world. His determination, skill, and connection with fans have earned him widespread recognition and suggest a promising future at Real Madrid.
