Bellingham on Vini Jr: ‘He’s probably the best in the world for me.’

Inform Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has described his calls teammate Vinicius  Jr. as the best player in the world.

Bellingham told Movistar, when asked about his developing partnership with Vinicius: “He’s probably the best in the world for me. He’s one of the most talented players I’ve ever played with.”

Vinicius has been considered as the face of Real Madrid by many following the departure of Karim Benzema at the end of last season. And considering what the Brazilian winger has achieved over the last two seasons, it is hard to argue with that.

At the same time, Bellingham is already making a pretty good case for himself as well. Of course, that is a great problem to have if you are Real Madrid. And then there is the possibility that they could sign Kylian Mbappe next summer. This could be a super team.

Bellingham has been in great form since joining Real Madrid. The English midfielder seems unstoppable this season and his transfer fee, believed to be north of €100 million, is starting to look like a bargain. He was always expected to do well. But it is safe to say that he has exceeded all expectations.

Bellingham continued his incredible run for Real Madrid with an unbelievable solo goal against Napoli in the Champions League. He received the ball near the halfway line before running with it all the way to the opposition goal and brilliantly finding a way past the goalkeeper. The defenders surrounded him but could not stop him from scoring.

It is hard to imagine that Bellingham is just 20 years of age. At this rate, he looks set to win multiple Ballon d’Or

in the future. The fact he is doing all this as a number 10 is even more impressive.

There was another player on the scoresheet for Real Madrid against Napoli. It was none other than Vinicius Jr, who had recently returned from a long-term injury.
