Is it worth commenting on? Jude Bellingham keeps pushing his limits. At the weekend he became the player with the most goals in his first 15 games at Real Madrid, now he’s broken another Champions League record.

At this rate, slowly but surely, Jude Bellingham is heading for the Ballon d’Or. Because there’s no one in the world who can match him at the moment.

He scored against Cadiz at the weekend, his number 14 in his first fifteen games for Real Madrid. No one has ever done that, even Cristiano Ronaldo and Alfredo Di Stéfano have scored one goal less.

And the young Englishman continues his fine run. On Wednesday against Napoli, he pounced on a beautiful David Alaba centre and headed over the goalkeeper. At the end, he also set up a goal for Joseulo with a beautiful shot and, as in the Italy game, he scored 1+1.

In the current edition of the Champions League he has played in 4 matches, scoring 4 goals and assisting 2 more. This is another record for him, as no other player has scored so many goals in the first 4 games.

Bellingham’s current record this season is 16 games, 15 goals and 4 assists. He added one goal and two assists for the England national team. And it must be added that he is not a pure striker.

He is still only 20 years old and has almost his whole career ahead of him. He’s turning in his fifth full season as an adult, that’s how special this Birmingham boy is.

Real Madrid fans complained a bit in the summer that the club didn’t bring in any strikers after Karim Benzema’s departure, but Bellingham, meanwhile, is giving president Florentino Pérez the benefit of the doubt that none are even needed.
