Bellingham won’t be coming home.
The British have lost the battle
Mbappe and Haaland could stay at their current clubs for another season. This means that the transfer of the year will be the transfer of another new star, the third most valuable player in the world. Jude is only 19, but he’s a smart boy beyond his years. Therefore, Fabrizio Romano is the godfather of strong insiders, and a number of other sources together sang a beautiful song about giving up big money from Premier League in favor of Madrid.
Manchester United, SM and Liverpool were eyeing a strong all-round midfielder. Also, it goes without saying that at home in England, Jude was offered a ton of money. But it is unlikely that it was in Liverpool, where not only Henderson wanted to see him, but rather in Manchester clubs, because salaries are higher in Real Madrid than in Klopp’s team. Hazard is very untied, even if he doesn’t play and is expected to leave the club in the summer. But salary was not the main argument for the young midfielder.
Bellingham goes to Real Madrid, doubtful that the clubs have shown up in Premier League he will be rich in a year in terms of fighting for trophies. It is clear that Liverpool have suffered for their place in the table. Before the season started, their chances of getting Bellingham were much higher. Also affected by the lack of a point in the question of selling the club, Henry does not want to spend 100 million euros out of his own pocket on a newcomer. Namely, this amount is discussed by Perez and the managers of Borussia Dortmund.
Bellingham communicates online with Real Madrid players. He learns Spanish, wants to adapt faster. He quickly took root in Germany, arriving there from his native Birmingham three years ago. The young midfielder took the field with the captain’s armband in Dortmund, his leadership qualities are known to all. A representative of a talented family – there is also a younger brother, Job, who plays for Birmingham at the age of 17, wants to develop his talent. And he has chosen a great club.
Real Madrid forms a new trio
Tchuameni in the center, Valverde on the right and Bellingham on the left. These are Perez’s plans. It’s also important to note that if we look for analogies, Jude, of all the talents of the new generation, is most similar to Zidane in the way he plays. Don’t forget that the Frenchman had different periods in his career. The midfielder played high and low in midfield. But in terms of sweep, size and confidence, Jude looks a lot like Zizu, especially in his youth.
Real Madrid is looking for new stars, keeping in mind the age of Kroos and Modric. Tchuameni and Bellingham, young players, decided to invite them not in a couple of years, giving them time to adapt. The French failed in everything in the first season. But for now, big age partners will insure. However, they won’t last long. Modric and Kroos could leave together in a year. German has a podcast, football school and educational videos for children.
If Real Madrid needs it, Benzema will transfer knowledge to the Brazilian Andrik, and the midfielders will train Bellingham. Even if we are talking about a participant world Cup-22 and silver medalist of Euro 2020, Jude is actively developing. The Englishman has five goals and four assists in the Bundesliga, but it could have been more. And every hit and pass counts. Borussia Dortmund had a chance in the silver bowl, but a draw from their rivals put Bayern back at the top of the table.
Bellingham has several locations
Jude’s specialty is incredible stamina. He has an even participation in the game from the support zone to someone else’s penalty area line. Few people can do that. As Borussia needed Dortmund, he spent a lot of time in the center of the pitch instead of Casemiro. In the England national team, the midfielder has a different role and duties than the manager. Real Madrid gives one hundred million euros to get insurance in case Tchouameni doesn’t open up.
In Madrid they have midfielders who can change places. They will reveal Bellingham’s offensive potential, because he can play in the style of Pedri and Gavi. The task of the Real Madrid mentor is to experiment. We don’t know yet whether Ancelotti will be a master for beginners, because Carlo has many defeats in the new year. But Zidane and Raul also know perfectly well who Bellingham is and what he can do. There is only one concern.
Almost all transfers of one hundred million euros are not successful. Mystical. Bale helped Real Madrid but was temperamental at the end of his Madrid career, he didn’t play for all the money. Pogba hasn’t changed Manchester United for the best. Hazard, Lukaku, Felix, Coutinho, Dembele and Neymar definitely didn’t get their money back. Guardiola is doing everything for Grealish to benefit Manchester City. Enzo Fernandez could play for Chelsea if the Londoners come to life.
Mbappé is such a strong player that the stats are in his favour. But did he justify the huge investment of money? PSG? No, because the Parisians didn’t win the Champions League and will start again in the summer, having lost several players and a coach. Neither Griezmann at Barcelona nor Ronaldo at Juventus worked with money. In both cases they started cheaper and without the Champions Cup. Practice shows that paying one hundred million euros for a player is dangerous.
But aside from the madness of transfer concepts, Bellingham has been a welcome newcomer to many clubs. PSG didn’t rock the boat, they knew Jude would refuse. For Bayern, this transfer is too expensive, although the trio of Kimmich, Bellingham and Musiala could make an impression. Clubs from Premier League the Englishman had been looking for a long time, but it was necessary to work in the style of Dortmund: to take a player from Birmingham for 25 million euros.
At the time, they thought it was too high a price. And now the “bumblebees” will earn good money. Dembele’s transfer to Barcelona was insane, for 140 million euros, but Bellingham will try to justify Real Madrid’s investment. A great footballer, a big deal for Perez, because there were enough competitors. Also, Jude’s expensive transfer could suggest that Mbappe won’t move to Madrid and Real Madrid will make another bet.
