Mourinho’s message to Real Madrid superstar after international break controversy: ‘Outside I will defend you, here…’

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham expressed uncertainty about winning the Ballon d’Or, stating, "Who knows?" The England midfielder had a successful World Cup campaign in the summer and has maintained that form into the new season. Bellingham believes he may be playing the best football of his career, reflecting positively on his current performance following a challenging previous season.

Talking to Hayters TV after England's 3-0 win over Czechia, Bellingham said, "I’d probably say it’s my best." He is eager to continue improving and making his game more effective. Bellingham also praised England captain Harry Kane, describing him as an outstanding role model and an honour to share the pitch with. When asked if Kane could win the Ballon d’Or, Bellingham replied, "Who knows?

It’s definitely possible." Bellingham's confidence is further fueled by Real Madrid's midfield dynamics, which could potentially push him into crucial attacking roles as the season progresses.
