Jude Bellingham: “I’M Looking To Playing Bernabeu, Giving Everything I Can And Winning”
Jude Bellingham gave his first interview as a Real Madrid player on Realmadrid TV, where he discusses his arrival at the club: “I’ve never felt so proud in my life. Joining this club, with all the players who have played here, the 14 European Cups behind me. It’s an unforgettable moment. When I look at them I think I want to win more and add my name to the history of this club because it has become so big. That’s why I’m so happy to be here.”
“My greatest quality is that I can do a bit of everything. That’s my best strength and it allows me to play in different positions on the pitch. I like to dribble and win tackles, that’s the most fun, but I think my strongest point is that I can do a bit of everything.”
Continuous learning “It’s an honour to play with these players, to learn from them and hopefully win with them. It’s nice when you can absorb so much from your teammates on and off the pitch. I’m going to be like a sponge while I’m here and learn from everyone.” Praise for Ancelotti “He’s a special coach. His achievements and the trophies he has won speak for themselves. Any football coach and footballer would tell you how remarkable he is. His comments about me were very special and influenced me in my decision. I’m looking forward to playing for him and giving it everything for him.”
His first day at the Bernabéu “It’s hard to imagine my first day at the Bernabéu. It’s going to be unlike anything else. I’ve been at Dortmund for three years and the stadium and the fans are unbelievable, but the Bernabéu is unique and unbelievable. I’m looking forward to playing in front of the fans, giving everything I can and winning.”
Message for the madridistas “Hello, madridistas around the world. I’m really looking forward to playing for you. Now I am here. Thank you very much for your warm welcome. I’ve seen all the messages. Thanks for everything so far. Hala Madrid!”
