Since his €103 million (£88m/$110m) move to the Spanish giants, Bellingham has undeniably made a remarkable impact. The 20-year-old has impressively netted 10 goals for Real, mirroring the feat previously achieved by Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.
Bellingham’s exceptional performances have garnered applause not only across Europe but also in the United States, where Dallas Mavericks’ guard Luka Doncic expressed his admiration for the young Englishman.
Doncic told reporters, “I have seen a statistic in which he has scored 10 goals in the first 10 games. And the only one who has done it is Cristiano. He is playing very, very well.”
Moreover, Bellingham has contributed three assists within his initial 10 games, surpassing Ronaldo’s record for goal involvements. Carlo Ancelotti, the manager, has openly admitted his astonishment at Bellingham’s immediate impact in Madrid.
Furthermore, Bellingham’s teammate, Vinicius Junior, has stated that the Englishman seems “born to play” for Los Blancos.
