Real Madrid legend Raul has heaped praise on summer signing Jude Bellingham, claiming the Englishman is the most impressive player he has come across in recent years.
Raul Full Of Praise For Real Madrid’s ‘Golden Boy’ Jude Bellingham
Bellingham has been in a league of his own since moving to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund in the summer. Operating as an auxiliary forward at the top of Carlo Ancelotti’s midfield diamond, the Englishman has scored 20 goals and claimed eight assists in 29 appearances in all competitions. No Real Madrid player has scored as many goals this season.
Raul, who is currently managing Real Madrid Castilla, was full of praise for the 20-year-old in his interview with English outlet The Mirror. The Spaniard noted how quickly Bellingham has settled in at the club, something many experienced players could not manage.
Raul stated (via Madrid Universal):
“Jude Bellingham is one of the players who has impressed me the most in recent years. I’ve had the opportunity to watch him train and to see the games, of course. But I believe that, as the president of Real Madrid, Florentino, would say, he was born to play for Real Madrid.
“In such a short time, he has been able to connect with the public, with the values that are transmitted in Real Madrid and sports in general. And then, as young as he is, he has a maturity, a way of expressing himself, a way of connecting with everyone, and I haven’t seen a player with those qualities for a long time.”
He concluded by adding:
“Well, I wish him all the best, because he’s just starting out, he hasn’t even been here in Madrid for six or seven months yet. But I think Real Madrid fans enjoy him and opponents fear him, which is a good sign.”
