Jude Bellingham, who will wear the Real Madrid shirt, inherits the number of the great legend. Bellingham will wear the ‘5’ worn by Zinedine Zidane as a player at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Midfielder Bellingham has joined Real Madrid. Bellingham, who played for Borussia Dortmund and the England national team, transferred to Real Madrid for a transfer fee of 103 million euros (approximately 143.5 billion won). In addition to the transfer fee, a bonus of up to 30% has been set aside, and the contract period is six years.토토사이트
Real Madrid held a press conference on Bellingham’s joining on the 15th local time. At this meeting, Bellingham sat with President Florentino Perez and expressed his feelings about joining.
Bellingham, who wore number 22 at Dortmund, wears ‘legend’ Zidane’s number 5 at Real Madrid. The meaning of 22 is a combination of 4, 8, and 10, and it shows the character of Bellingham, a versatile beauty with various talents. The number 22 is currently worn by defender Antonio Rudiger.
“I’ve spoken in several interviews about how much I admire Zidane and the legacy he left at the club,” Bellingham said. He expressed his respect.
Bellingham, who plays in the central midfield position, is looking to learn a lot from veteran midfielders Luka Modric and Toni Kroos in the team.
“There’s an incredible amount you can learn from these two veterans, Modric and Kroos, besides their knowledge of football. I’m like a sponge around them, trying to steal everything they have. It might annoy me. “
Bellingham’s final choice, which attracted interest from English clubs such as Liverpool, was Real Madrid. Returning home would have been the easiest decision, but he again took up the challenge abroad.
“I always knew there was interest from England. I was a little surprised when my dad told me about 12-15 months ago that he was interested in me from Real Madrid. I got goosebumps and my heart stopped. When it became a reality, I was really surprised,” he said. My goal is to help Real Madrid win trophies and become the best club in the world.”
