Vinicius Junior, a striker for Real Madrid, has said that Jude Bellingham’s great play since joining the Spanish Royal Team proves that he was destined to play for Real Madrid.

Midfielder Jude Bellingham resumed his legacy with a double in Real Madrid’s 4-0 win against Osasuna in a recent La Liga encounter. The English midfielder leads all scorers in La Liga with 8 goals after 8 games.

Vinicius Junior, a striker, was effusive in his admiration for his new colleague, a midfielder born in 2003, after the game.

There is no doubt that Bellingham was destined to play for Real Madrid. To have a teammate like Jude is a blessing, and I look forward to many more seasons playing with him.

Jude Bellingham, although being a midfielder, has displayed skills that even premier attackers covet. The fact that he can score and assist makes coach Carlo Ancelotti even happier with his decision to put him in the most advanced midfield position.

That’s also the primary reason why Bellingham’s goal total for Real Madrid now tops the total for Cristiano Ronaldo. After 10 games at the Bernabeu, the ex-Borussia Dortmund player has 13 goal-related situations (including goals and assists). For the White Vultures, Ronaldo only started 11 of their first 10 games.

If this trio keeps it up, not only will the next Golden Ball race likely come down to Haaland, Mbappe, and Bellingham, but also the individual championships.
