He will join the White House. Announced leaving for many weeks, Jude Bellingham will commit to Real Madrid and sign a six-year contract, as announced by his club, Borussia Dortmund, in a press release on Wednesday June 7.

The recent second in the Bundesliga spoke of a “agreement in principle” up to 103 million euros, pending the opening of the transfer market on July 1. Different bonuses of up to 30% of the total transfer amount could be added to this sum depending on Bellingham’s individual performance or Real Madrid’s sporting results.

Lots of experience despite being 19 years old

Author of a spectacular third season in the Bundesliga with eight goals and four assists despite his status as a midfielder, he also shone in the Champions League, where he scored four goals in seven appearances. Above all, Real Madrid offers itself a jewel that has already been well polished. The man who turns 20 on June 23 has already played 176 professional matches (including 23 in the Champions League) and has already worn the captain’s armband with the BvB on several occasions.

The general public discovered him at Euro 2021, during which he made three appearances with the England team which went all the way to the final against Italy. He exploded two years later, at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where he established himself as a central element of the “Three Lions”.
