Bellingham agrees new deal at Real Madrid

Jude Bellingham has reportedly agreed to a five-year contract with Real Madrid that would keep him at the club until 2031 and improve his terms. Spanish newspaper AS says the England midfielder feels at home in Madrid, while the club sees him as a potential leader following the departures of Dani Carvajal, Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos. Since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2023, he has helped Real win the Champions League and LaLiga; this season he has three goals and three assists in eight league appearances. The reported deal follows Vinicius Junior’s recent renewal on a six-year contract.
