Jude Bellingham has been a revelation since joining Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund this summer.

The 20-year-old has scored 10 goals and provided 3 assists in his first 10 appearances, helping Los Blancos go top of La Liga and their Champions League group.

Bellingham isn’t the only member of his family to play soccer professionally. His younger brother, Jobe, currently plays in England with Sunderland and, like his older brother, started his career at Birmingham City.

Real Madrid are well aware of Jobe’s talents, and El Nacional has reported that chief scout Juni Calafat recently witnessed his performance with the England U19s during the current international break.

Jobe, 18, is highly regarded within their ranks and Real Madrid may decide he is worth a chance. As of now, Real Madrid have not yet entered into negotiations with Sunderland over a possible deal, but that could change in the coming months.
