Jude Bellingham impresses Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid
Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has reportedly impressed manager Jose Mourinho with his exceptional work ethic and professionalism at the Valdebebas training complex. According to reports from El Chiringuito, the 23-year-old often spends up to eight hours a day at the facility, frequently being the last player to leave the training ground.
Mourinho, who returned to the club this summer, has noted Bellingham's dedication, a sentiment shared by his teammates. This commitment follows a challenging previous season where Bellingham played through physical pain. He has since returned to form, recording seven goal contributions in 11 appearances.
Due to his performance and attitude, Bellingham is expected to sign a new contract that will extend his stay at the Santiago Bernabeu until 2031, keeping him at the club until he is 28 years old. Additionally, Mourinho has indicated that he views Bellingham's optimal role as an attacking midfielder.
