After Real Madrid’s victory in the European Super Cup on Wednesday evening, Jude Bellingham was full of praise for Kylian Mbappé.
Kylian Mbappé could hardly have dreamed of a better debut. For his very first match in the colours of Real Madrid, Wednesday evening against Atalanta Bergamo in the European Super Cup (2-0), the “Kyk’s” scored his first goal on a service from Jude Bellingham (68e) and won his first trophy at the White House.
In the post-match press conference, Jude Bellingham did not hide his joy at now playing alongside the French star, of whom he thinks highly.
Bellingham on Mbappé: “Playing with him is extraordinary”
“Playing with him is extraordinary. Before, I already found him exceptional. Now, I have the chance to play with him. I see the details a little closer: the speed, the quality, the game without the ball. His leadership and his communication. I don’t have enough words to talk about him. It’s a big step in his career.”said the England international.
And to add: ” People have been talking about him in Madrid for a long time. But it feels like he’s been here for a while. He’s integrated well, it’s a great group, we’ve always welcomed new players, we do the same with him. In return, I’m sure he’ll reward us a hundredfold as he did tonight.”
