Immediately following Real Madrid’s victory over Manchester City in the Champions League play-offs, Jude Bellingham presented his opinion on which player he considers to be the “most talented” representing the club.
Bellingham, who is 21 years old, provided the starting lineup for Madrid’s victory over Pep Guardiola’s team on Wednesday, which resulted in a 3-1 (6-3 on aggregate) victory and advanced them to the round of 16 of the Champions League.
Who among his teammates does the England international consider to be the most talented? Vini Jr. and Kylian Mbappé are just two of the high-profile players that are a part of the Los Blancos team, which also includes other notable players such as Kylian Mbappé.
When the question was posed to Bellingham after Madrid’s match on Wednesday, he responded with an answer that was quite unexpected.
Isn’t it true that Rodrygo is so underappreciated? According to what Bellingham said in an interview with CBS Sports Golazo.
“In my opinion, he is most likely the most talented and gifted player on the team.
Because of the things he is capable of doing with the football… We will be joking around, and he will somehow flick the ball up, and you will be thinking to yourself, “How did he manage to do that?” My goal is to accomplish that.
“I’m bending my ankles and doing other things like that,” she said. The experience of playing with both of them is a delight.
They will win the game for you if you put them in positions where they have the ability to influence the outcome of the games.
Regarding Rodrygo, another thing that should be mentioned is that he is the one who makes the most sacrifices, all things considered. Without a doubt, his preferred position is on the left side of the field. It is essential to take into account the fact that he contributes significantly to the team’s defensive efforts on the right side, which is not his best position.
However, he never complains about it; he just gets on with it, and that is the way that we need to continue doing things.
The Brazilian is an important member of Ancelotti’s squad, and he has performed exceptionally well for the 15-time European champions this season, contributing 12 goals and nine assists across 34 appearances.
Yesterday evening, he demonstrated his worth by contributing to Madrid and Mbappé’s second goal of the match. He provided the assist, and then the Frenchman finished the play off with a smart finish after he had City defender Josko Gvardiola completely confused.
Moreover, Rodrgyo, who is 24 years old, has not only impressed Bellingham but also other people.
On the previous month, Ancelotti, who is 65 years old, referred to him as a “complete player” during a press conference.
“He is a complete player and, although we are aware that he prefers to play on the left, someone, for the good of the team, has to make sacrifices,” the Italian explained to reporters. And Rodrygo has always acted in this manner. He has never failed to prioritise the well-being of the team.
The quality of Rodrygo is appreciated by football. It is necessary for me to make the positions more clear for the benefit of the team. There hasn’t been a lot of trouble so far. And in the years to come, it will not.”
