Quique Sanchez Flores likened Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane

Bellingham is at the head of the new generation of young people coming,” said Quique Sanchez Flores.

Jude Bellingham has been a pillar of Real Madrid and the Englishman has shown great strength since his arrival in La Liga. Former Getafe manager Quique Sanchez Flores has likened Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane.

Quique Sanchez Flores admitted that his movement and his elegance remind him of the former Madrid manager. Bellingham arrived at Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund for €103 million.

Bellingham has scored 13 goals in 14 games across all competitions this season. He is Real Madrid’s top scorer so far this season.

“It’s not surprising to me,” said the former Real Madrid youth team coach.

“To my friends, when Madrid signed him, I already told them: “Be careful, with the player who is coming.” I have followed Dortmund closely for four years. At first for Haaland and when Bellingham arrived also for him.”

When asked if Bellingham reminds him of any other player, he said, “Of the broad panorama that I have in my mind, the one he reminds me of most is Zidane.

“Because of his movements, gestures, elegance, and movement of the ball, he reminds me of the Frenchman. He is at the head of the new generation of young people coming.”
