Euro 2024: Jude Bellingham Privately Disclosed Real Madrid Star Who Is Better Than Him

• Jude Bellingham reportedly admitted that his Real Madrid teammate might be a better football player than him
• Bellingham has quickly scaled the football ladder in the past year after moving to Real Madrid from Dortmund
• The England star will be hoping to lead his nation to their first major silverware since 1966 by winning Euro 2024

Jude Bellingham is undoubtedly one of the fast-rising footballers who has captured the world's attention with mesmerising performances.

Bellingham's talent was evident during his days at Birmingham. The club retired his number when he moved to Borussia Dortmund in 2020.

But it has been at Real Madrid where his talent has come to the fore. The England international played an integral part in his debut season in Spain, where he won the Champions League and La Liga titles.

He is also one of the perceived candidates for the 2024 Ballon d'Or award.

Who does Jude Bellingham think is better than him?

However, Bellingham believes that his Real Madrid teammate, Arda Guler, might be a better player than he is. The 20-year-old made the sentiments to the creator of the Golden Boy Award, Massimo Franchi, in December last year.

"He told me last year that Real Madrid had a fantastic young player who is perhaps even a little bit better than him," said Franchi, as quoted by the Mirror.

Guler joined Los Blancos in the same summer as Bellingham, but his career has yet to take off fully after he suffered a series of injuries. Dubbed the 'Turkish Messi,' the attacking midfielder lit up Euro 2024 with a breathtaking goal against Georgia in their opening game.

Bellingham was also on the scoresheet for his nation in their first game against Serbia before they drew against Denmark. The Three Lions play Slovenia in their final group game.

Turkey, meanwhile, lost 3-0 to Portugal but will be hopeful of making it to the Round of 16 when they play Czech Republic on Wednesday.

Sports Brief also reported on Arda Guler breaking Cristiano Ronaldo’s record with his goal against Georgia on June 18.

The Real Madrid wonderkid is now one of the youngest players to score at the Euros, moving ahead of Ronaldo, who held the record after scoring for Portugal at the Euro 2004.
