He has already won La Liga Player of the Month for August after scoring five goals in Madrid’s first four games. Then, during the international break, he continued his hot streak by scoring and assisting in England’s 1-3 victory against Scotland.
La Liga president Javier Tebas, who addressed the media today as part of a news conference, talked highly of Bellingham, who is undoubtedly one of the top players in the world right now.
There are few better players in the world than Bellingham. Nobody saw him scoring this many goals coming, but he told SPORT that playing in La Liga helps players improve.
In his professional football career, the Englishman has consistently finished in the goal scoring positions, most recently with eight goals for Borussia Dortmund. However, Carlo Ancelotti’s decision to deploy him farther up the field, almost in a false 9 position, has paid huge dividends for los blancos.
Kylian Mbappe, who has been linked to Madrid for more than three years, came close to joining the club in the summer as well. In the same news conference, Tebas addressed this issue, saying, “Wih the salary limit Madrid has, I gave them Mbappe and another player.”
Real Madrid has started the season well, winning their first four games by comfortable margins. This weekend, they host Real Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu before turning their attention to the Champions League match against Union Berlin.
