Author of a magnificent and decisive outside foot on Sunday, Jude Bellingham admitted to being inspired by Luka Modric.
The beginnings of Jude Bellingham with the real Madrid are up to, and perhaps even above, the expectations placed on him upon his arrival for 103 million euros during the 2023 summer transfer window. The English international, placed as a very offensive number 10 in the 4-4 -2 from Carlo Ancelotti, shines with his immense volume of play and even discovers his talents as a scorer. If he tended to play forward in Dortmund, the 20-year-old has turned into a real finisher this season with 7 goals in 8 matches in all competitions, including several achievements worthy of the greatest foxes on the surface.

On Saturday, he also shone in the last pass with a magnificent outside foot to Joselu, who only had to push the ball to score his fourth goal of the season in La Liga. A gesture which obviously recalled the talent of Luka Modric in this exercise, a source of inspiration for Bellingham, as he explained in comments relayed by ESPN. “I’ve been watching Luka (Modric) every day for about three months. I just want to be creative”he explained.
