And he’s not a teenager anymore. When Real Madrid made the €103 million transfer from Jude Bellingham announced, the Briton was still 19 years old. Things are different now: Born on June 29, 2003, Bellingham is now celebrating his 20th birthday – and promptly degenerating into an expensive oldie.
Jokes aside: The man from Stourbridge near Birmingham can’t stop celebrating at the moment: Real Madrid announced the transfer on June 14th, followed by the big presentation on June 15th. A little later, Bellingham opened his own Adidas store in his home country and in the middle of his well-deserved summer vacation he can now blow out candles – 20 of them. 20 candles that still stand for a very young and, on the one hand, highly talented, but also extremely experienced player: From 2019 to 2020 he played more than 40 times in England, in the last three years he made 132 appearances for BVB (24 goals, 25 assists) and also made 24 appearances for the English national team.

I’ll be like a sponge that absorbs everything. You’ll probably get annoyed with me after the first week. I can’t wait to learn from them.“
However, there are still holidays to go before Real Madrid starts school and although Bellingham is no longer a teenager he still has hopes of a junior award. Because in the race for the Golden Boy, he is one of the hottest contenders!
Theoretically, 100 youngsters can hope to win the Golden Boy 2023… read more
