"He acts like a gentleman and then insults" - Maffeo hits out at 'fake' Bellingham

The Mallorca defender, who has had his ups and downs with Real Madrid players, has lashed out at Jude Bellingham, banned with two matches for the “f*ck off” to Munuera Montero during the match against Osasuna.

The Spanish full-back, speaking to 'La Zona 10',hit out at the Briton and did so including Vinicius: “I like Vini better than Bellingham because he's like me, he's a heated person and he plays it straight. The other one goes behind your back. It's like in real life, if you don't like me, fine, but you play it straight”.

“If you act like a gentleman, like putting a little jacket on a child who is cold, but then you insult or pick on your colleagues behind their backs, then you are a fake. Come face to face. I don't like you either, you already know that, but don't be nice. So, if I have to stay with one of the two, I'll stay with Vinicius, I know how it is”, added the defender about the Birmingham.

It should be recalled that both Maffeo and Bellingham had already had a scuffle in the Spanish Super Cup. Jude himself gave him a slap as soon as Rodrygo scored and the Catalan reproached him.
