The England star rubbed shoulders with Usain Bolt on the red carpet in Madrid
The Jamaican, a master of public relations, took an iconic photo with Jude Bellingham in which they both posed imitating the gesture with which the Englishman from Real Madrid celebrated a goal. your win.
The world record holder in the 100 and 200 metres, who retired in 2017, who also performed the lightning move he popularized during his glittering career, chose Real Madrid in the Champions League: “Being here is amazing and Real Madrid is my second team “Now with City away, I think they are favorites to win the Champions League.”
Bolt also humorously asked about Mbappé’s speed with the ball at his feet: “Beat him in a sprint? Right now? Yes.”
And Bellingham admitted he wants to lift three more trophies by the middle of July.
He said: “Success now would be winning all three – La Liga and the Champions League with Real madrid and Euro 2024 with England.
“We’re still got a few more games to wrap up La Liga and then we’ve got two very difficult games against Munich.
“And then for the Euros, hopefully we can take our form from the last few tournaments into that and push on and do one better. It takes a lot of work and a lot of sacrifice and hopefully we can do it.”
The 20-year-old is also now the favourite to win the Ballon d’Or after his latest heroics in Spain.
Odds for Bellingham to claim the prize later this year have tumbled, with the midfielder now ahead of Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane in the running.
