After the sibling’s incredible performance, the cheery Bernabeu chief ended up with a £115 million star..
The Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti’s X-rated joke about his brother Jobe alarmed Jude Bellingham, as he has disclosed.
After seeing his younger sibling Jobe score twice for Sunderland, the England midfielder revealed how his naughty manager made fun of him.

In time, Bellingham Senior, 21, may be joined in the pantheon of mega-money transfers by his brother, 18, who is currently 18 years old.
Jude has now clarified how the decision might have been made much sooner rather than later!
In June 2023, the 36-cap star paid £115 million to move from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid.
And he revealed what transpired merely two months later, when Jobe scored a commanding header and a clinical slot-home to score an impressive double.
It allowed the Black Cats to overcome Rotherham 2-1 at home in the Championship.
Ancelotti then went, mischievously purring—well enough to trick Bellingham!
“I still remember when my brother Jobe scored twice, we were watching the game and Ancelotti said, ‘f***… we brought the wrong one!'” Jude said on his YouTube account. I’ll bring him over here.
“‘Where are you going to play him?'” I asked. Carlo remarked, “in your situation!”

“I thought, ‘F*** that!'” Finally, he grinned a little, which made my heart stop and made me say, “Okay, fine.”
“And then I’m like, no pressure for today!”
What was the elder Bellingham’s response, then?
He also scored a pair of goals later that day as Real Madrid defeated Sunderland’s comeback.
In La Liga, Los Blancos was behind 1-0 against Almeria.
After after, Bellingham scored a close-range goal to put Real ahead, and Vinicius Junior sealed the 3-1 win.
Thirteen months later, Real sits four points behind Barcelona in the Spanish first division, while Sunderland leads the Championship by two points.
Thus, Bellingham Junior could surprise Jude in May by winning the lone championship this year!
