Jude Bellingham is among one of the best footballers of his generation. He is tactically aware, quick, technically sound, and wise beyond his years. His maturity on and off the pitch makes him an asset for any team that he is on, whether that is the English National Team at international competitions or Real Madrid during Champions League or La Liga games.
It is no wonder that he was in the running for the La Liga Player of the Season after his fantastic performances this year for Madrid.

Bellingham was voted the player of the season for his role in the midfield to spur Real Madrid on to win their incredible 36th league title. At just 20 years old, still plenty young with over a decade of football left to play in his legs, he is one of the best players in the world. He beat other teammates who were also in the running for the coveted prize, like Lewandowski, Griezmann, Vinicius Junior, and Dobby.
Jude Bellingham scored a whopping 19 goals and provided six assists for his teammates in just 28 league games this year, showing his ability to create chances, finish shots, and find the frame of the goal when it really matters. He amassed 23 goals in all competitions for Real Madrid, earning goals in Champions League qualifiers, semifinals, and finals.
Jude Bellingham is not only a great footballer, but he is humble and mature beyond his young age.
‘I would like to dedicate it to my teammates, the coaching staff, and most importantly, to the fans of the best club in the world. It’s a pleasure every time I play for this team. Halal Madrid!’
Jude Bellingham’s humble attitude and thankful demeanor have made him a fan and club favorite after joining Real Madrid last year. He previously played for Borussia Dortmund in the German Bundesliga where he caught everyone’s attention with his creative playing style and goal-scoring abilities.
This year at Real Madrid, he played in 10 Champions League matches, scored four goals, and provided four assists throughout the competition. He played in two Supercopa de Espana matches and provided an assist for his teammates.
For his English national team, he has taken the field four times this year for the UEFA Euro Qualifiers and provided one assist. Jude Bellingham also played five matches in the World Cup, scoring one goal and adding an assist, plus four matches in the World Cup qualifiers.

Real Madrid This Season
This season, Real Madrid earned first place in La Liga, earning 95 points on the year and beating Barcelona by 10 points. They were way out of striking distance of the third and fourth-place teams, Giron and Atletico Madrid, with those teams only earning 81 and 76 points, respectively.
Their final matches of the season include the Champions League semi-finals, finals, and their final league matches. Real had two huge wins against Granada and Alaves, with Jude Bellingham scoring in the latter match just 10 minutes into the game, and an exciting draw against Villareal that ended 4-4.
Now, Real Madrid and Jude Bellingham look forward to this weekend when they will play Borussia Dortmund – Jude Bellingham’s old team – in the Champions League final. This is the 15th time both of these teams have played one another, with Real Madrid winning more than 80% of the matches played against one another.
Dortmund and Real Madrid last faced off against one another in the Champions League back in the 2018-2018 competition, with Real Madrid winning both stages in the group stage with ease.
Let’s see if Jude Bellingham can do what he does best and score a few goals for his side in this intense final match.
