Carlo Ancelotti, coach of Real Madrid competing in the Spanish Football League, expressed his confidence in the ability of midfielder Jude Bellingham to deal with the high ceiling of expectations after his brilliance at the beginning of his era with the Spanish giant.
Bellingham (20 years old) said when he joined Real last June, coming from Dortmund for 103 million euros, that he wanted to add more successes to the history of the ancient club, which was crowned European champion 14 times.
The English player is the top scorer in the Spanish League with 5 goals after participating in 4 matches, and he also excelled in England’s 3-1 friendly win over Scotland last Tuesday.
“He plays in a major league competition and for a major club,” Ancelotti told reporters on Saturday. He’s doing well and that doesn’t surprise me. “Good players with strong character suffer a little less than others.”
He added, “The player’s personality comes first and foremost before his level, which means that wearing a big shirt like the Real Madrid shirt does not burden him.”
The coach praised Bellingham for maintaining his level and expressed his belief that the player would not be affected by the increased interest.
He said that he is “a player who stays focused, very serious and very professional.” “He is not a person who would lose his mind due to praise.”
He added, “He maintains his level and has great physical strength.” “I don’t know how many goals he might score, but he has to maintain this level because he helps us a lot on the offensive level.”
“The Royal” will host Real Sociedad, tenth in the standings, today, Sunday.
