On the evening of January 6, Real Madrid was a guest on the field of Arandina Club in the round of 32 of the Spanish King’s Cup. Because this is a weak opponent, coach Carlo Ancelotti keeps many pillars. One of them was Jude Bellingham , who sat on the bench throughout the match.
But the English player still leaves a beautiful image that makes people talk about him. At the time of the match, the temperature was low because it was winter. Bellingham and Real Madrid players were given blankets to keep warm.
In a moment, Bellingham spotted a ball boy nearby who seemed cold even though he was wearing a jacket. He called the boy back, but the boy gestured to indicate that he was on duty and could not leave his position.
At this time, Bellingham suddenly left the bench to cover the boy with a blanket. This entire image was recorded by the camera and spread widely on social network X (formerly Twitter). Many fans left compliments for Bellingham’s actions.
An account named Manuel Marin commented: “An admirable action by Bellingham.” As for Maria Rodriguez’s account, she wrote: “He warmed the hearts of both the ball boy and the fans.”
After the match, the Spanish press sought out the ball boy for an interview and learned that his name was Oli. Oli replied innocently: “Jude Bellingham is my favorite player. I don’t understand what he said, but that action was so touching. This is my happiest day.”
Bellingham moved from Dortmund to Real Madrid last summer, for a fee of up to 103 million euros. He adapted quickly and made a lot of impression on the new team. Through 22 appearances in all competitions, Bellingham scored 17 goals and contributed 5 assists for Real Madrid.
In the latest update of the valuation site Transfermarkt, the English midfielder has become one of the three most expensive players in the world along with Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe (both 180 million euros).
In the above match, Real Madrid easily won tickets to the next round with a 3-1 victory over Arandina.
