"If Bellingham goes to Madrid, they'll treat him like a king"

It's thought Jude Bellingham has rejected a move to the Premier League. The footballer said no to a €15 million per season move to City, opting for Real Madrid, the ones who have really convinced him.

Steve McManaman spoke about his possible future at the Santiago Bernabeu. "If Jude manages to sign for Madrid, he'll be treated like a king. It'll be an exciting new chapter for the side, with the youngsters taking the reigns", he said to the 'Mirror'.

The ex-Liverpool man thinks that Los Blancos can afford him: "They've got the money because since they bought Eden Hazard in 2019, they've not really gone big and spent money on big signings".

"Madrid have been selling players and saving money to buy other youngsters. They thought that they were going to get Mbappe... but the money's there", he added.

If the move ends up happening, McManaman thinks that Madrid would benefit from it. "They're building a promising future. Adding Bellingham to the side would show they're doing good business".
