Jude Bellingham
Midfielder
Jude Bellingham is another young, phenomenal player who will headline the England squad this summer. He became one of the stars of Real Madrid in just his first season with the club, leading the team in Goals + Assist contributions to date. In the 2023 calendar year, Jude won both major awards for footballers under the age of 23, the Golden Boy and the Kopa Trophy, leading him to be recognized as one of the best young players in the world. Bellingham had his true breakout season in 2022-2023, as he was named the Bundesliga Player of the Season. After this breakout season, Jude was sold to Real Madrid for 103 million euros, a price we believe could even be considered an underpay. Bellingham’s style of play is often regarded as the best well-rounded play by a midfielder in the world. He is known for his versatility and vision, and he has been praised for playing multiple positions and his dynamic play style, which is exceptional defense and offense. Fellow England teammate Phil Foden has described him as “one of the most gifted players I've ever seen.” Jude Bellingham's ability to dribble, pass, shoot, and score from central midfield has all set him up to be one of the standout players during the Euro 2024 tournament.
