Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham is tipped by Fabio Capello to succeed legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the world’s best player.
Bellingham has quickly established himself as one of the best players in the world after impressing at Real Madrid following an expensive move from Borussia Dortmund. The England star has scored 14 goals and three assists for Los Blancos in 18 La Liga matches and has also received the Golden Boy award and the Kopa Trophy. Capello was impressed by the young star and believes she needs to be included in any conversations about the future Ballon d’Or.
Capello impressed by Messi
Capello spoke from Bellingham when asked if Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland were the two players best suited to take over from Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. He told Marca: “For me, the two footballers who will fight like Messi and Cristiano did are Mbappé and Bellingham.”
The former Real Madrid manager went on to praise the England international, adding:“He’s a very complete player, he can do everything. He does a lot of things and he does them at a very high level, his quality is enormous. There are complete players but at an average or high level, but Bellingham is complete at a very high level, capable of making the difference. He does unimaginable things… Certain passes he makes, certain movements he makes are unique. »
Bellingham has already broken the records set by Ronaldo at Madrid in his debut campaign and has said he wants more titles, goals and wins in 2024. He could be joined in the Spanish capital by Kylian Mbappé this summer, and it was also reported that he tried to recruit Haaland for Carlo Ancelotti’s side. Real Madrid will have to do without Bellingham in their next outing. The England international will serve a one-match ban against Las Palmas in La Liga after receiving his fifth yellow card of the season against Almeria.
