Remembering When Real Madrid Star Jude Bellingham Helped Build a School in Mombasa, Kenya

• Jude Bellingham has continued to dazzle on and off the pitch
• The midfielder has settled in at Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid
• In 2021, Bellingham helped complete a new school in Kenya

If there was any doubt that Jude Bellingham was one for the future, the midfielder has quickly vanquished his naysayers with exquisite performances in his debut season in Spain.

He has made Santiago Bernabeu Stadium his turf since making the big-money move from Borussia Dortmund to the Spanish capital.

Real Madrid seemingly got more than what they paid for his services, with the England international currently topping goal-scoring charts in La Liga.

From his celebrations to his interview, to his generous acts, including giving up his blanket for a ballboy, Bellingham has cultivated a larger-than-life personality.

At only 20 years old, he has already exhibited maturity rare in many stars his age. His personality extends off the pitch - if his charity acts in 2021 are anything to go by.

When Bellingham assisted with school project

Miles away from the West Midlands in the United Kingdom, where he was born in 2003, young school-going children in Mombasa, Kenya, will forever be indebted to Bellingham for building them a modern school.

Miche Bora Primary School was a brainchild of the Mustard Seed Charity, founded by Rita Fowler and her late husband, Geoff. Rita's daughter was working with Bellingham's father and introduced the then-Birmingham midfielder to the charity group.

The current Real Madrid star then asked for support through his social media handles and, together with other donors, was able to construct the school that now houses more than 300 children aged between three and 14, as BBC News reported.

"The school in Mombasa is finished and the kids enjoy being back in lessons and learning. A massive thank you to those who donated and supported. The team and I really appreciate it," said Bellingham.

The children also have football kits and balls from Bellingham himself.

He is currently in Saudi Arabia with the Los Blancos, where he hopes to win his first title in Spain. They play cross-city rivals, Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup semi-final.

Real Madrid will face either Barcelona or Osasuna in the final if they beat Diego Simeone's side.
