Jude Bellingham has taken Real Madrid and La Liga by storm. Since the 20-year-old England international made his sensational switch to the Spanish capital from Borussia Dortmund for almost $111 million, Bellingham has been the most productive outlet for Los Blancos this campaign. Shortly following the England midfielder’s recent showing, City goal machine Erling Haaland has made a 1-word comment on Bellingham’s remarkable start to life at the Bernabeu.

Bellingham fired in 2 goals in Real’s 4-0 win over Osasuna in their La Liga clash yesterday, taking his total tally to 10 goals in 10 games for the Madrid outfit in all competitions. Bellingham has scored 8 goals in La Liga and 2 goals in the Champions League for the Madrid giants this season and is the club’s top scorer. Just after Bellingham’s brace against Osasuna, Norwegian hitman Erling Haaland made a special comment on Bellingham’s social media post.
