Andrea Barzagli, a former defender for Juventus, has said that Real Madrid’s decision to invest one hundred million euros on Jude Bellingham was unquestionably justified. She also stated that the midfielder is a “lethal footballer.”
With twenty goals and six assists in all competitions, Bellingham has made quite an impression this season, impressing everyone with his spectacular exploits. He has completed the season with a total of twenty goals and six assists.
Surprisingly, the England midfielder has already exceeded his all-time greatest scoring total, despite the fact that he has competed in less than thirty games for his new squad in his first season with the team.
A great number of present and former football players have discussed the influence that he has had on the Real Madrid team in the past, and Barzagli has now joined the chorus of those who have said this.
During an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport (with thanks to AS), the former defender made the following statement:
The influence that Jude Bellingham has had on a club like Real Madrid is just remarkable. The Englishman is a player who is both cutting-edge and vicious. He has a fantastic body, he is unflappable in the face of the goal, and he functions very well as a technical. I would argue that he is deserving of the one hundred million euros.
The odds are stacked in favor of Real Madrid winning the Champions League.
In addition, Bargazli said that, in his view, Manchester City and Real Madrid are the favorites to win the UEFA Champions League. Bargazli was a member of the famed partnership that he built with Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini during his time at Juventus.
“They are the two most popular ones, and they are among the favorites. At least according to the publication. First and first, Real Madrid, even if it is merely due to the fact that they have a record, because of the weight of their past, and because they know how to win…
“The other team, Manchester City, who triumphed in the year before. While it is not an easy feat to win the Champions League twice in a row, it is interesting to note that Real Madrid is the only team to have accomplished this feat in recent years.
The games add up, you have to be in good spirits between the first leg and the second leg, and the Champions League may be challenging at times. The teams who are the most powerful and have the greatest players do not always make it to the next round. “And then every year there is a revelation team, an underdog that advances,” remarked the professional footballer who had previously competed for Italy.
The fact that Real Madrid is the only team in the history of the UEFA Champions League to have won the continental title for two consecutive years is an interesting fact to consider.
An extensive number of ailments may prevent them from winning the championship at some time during this season, despite the fact that they are believed to be the favorites to do so.
