Jude Bellingham becomes sixth Englishman to join Real Madrid

The midfielder moved from Borussia Dortmund

Jude Bellingham will join David Beckham, Laurie Cunningham, Steve McManaman, Michael Owen, and Jonathan Woodgate as the sixth English outfielders to sign for Real Madrid after officially becoming a Los Blancos player.

On Thursday, the England international will be unveiled to the crowd.

Bellingham has developed for the club as well as the nation, most notably dashing for England in their victory against Iran at the Qatar World Cup in December.

He became the youngest Englishman to make an appearance in a Champions League game and the youngest goalscorer in an official game for Borussia Dortmund in his debut season in Germany.

Fans of football are in a flurry as a result of Real Madrid's signing of Jude Bellingham as the Spanish team rebuilds its midfield.

Bellingham, who caught the attention of a few elite European clubs, was introduced as the most recent acquisition of Los Blancos on June 14th.

The Englishman leaves Borussia Dortmund after a fruitful three-season stay, winning the renowned honour of Bundesliga Player of the Year in the most recent campaign, according to Bavarian Football Works.

The 19-year-old's talents have been secured by the Spanish powerhouses in a contract worth €103 million (£88.5 million), with additional potential add-ons.

Bellingham's agreement might increase to an astounding €133.9 million (£115 million) with these additions.

Real Madrid's addition of Bellingham is yet another crucial development in the evolution of their midfield as the team works to rebuild their team.

The arrival of the gifted young Englishman and the French prospects Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni marks a departure from seasoned players Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.
