The English midfielder scored two goals in Real Madrid’s stunning win over Osasuna.
England manager Gareth Southgate admits it is “not a stupid question” to ask whether Jude Bellingham is the best player in the world right now. The Englishman has been excellent for Real Madrid this season.
The 20-year-old midfielder has gone up another level since his move to Real Madrid. He has scored 10 goals in 10 matches across all competitions.
The English midfielder scored two goals in Real Madrid’s stunning win over Osasuna. Asked if Bellingham was the best in the world right now, England’s manager said: “I wondered if you might say that!
“No, it’s not a stupid question. I haven’t seen everybody and studied everybody playing.
“All I can say is he’s at one of the biggest clubs in the world, arguably the biggest, and he’s playing exceptionally well and he’s currently the match-winner for them so he’s in a brilliant place.”
He added, “He’s been the match-winner for Real Madrid and the start for him has been absolutely phenomenal. I’m chuffed to bits for him.”
Bellingham will be in action for England in an international friendly against Australia and then, a Euro 2024 qualifier against Italy.
