Jude Bellingham won the Kopa Trophy for the fifth time. The Best Young Player in the World award was given to the Real Madrid star in Paris for his special brilliance.
Jude Bellingham got the Kopa Trophy because he was named the best young player in the world.
The Real Madrid star liked living in the Spanish city right away, and his reputation is now very high. He has had an amazing start to the La Liga season and has carried Real Madrid. His talent was on full display again as he scored two goals to help Madrid win the first Clasico of the season over the weekend.
Bellingham said this about his first game for Real Madrid: “It’s been great.” Everyone at the club has made me feel welcome. I’m sure of my skills, but they help me say what I think.”
The 20-year-old beat out close friend and Bayern Munich teammate Jamal Musiala, who has continued to rise in stature, and Real teammate Edouardo Camavinga to win the individual award in Paris.”It is a great list of players [who have won this award before],” the Kopa Trophy winner said. In this room, I get to play with some of the best players in the world and in the history of the game.
“To win this trophy means a lot but for me, the important thing is team trophies and the important thing for me is to kick on and help Real Madrid and England win trophies for many years.”
In the past few years, Bellingham has done very well. In 2021, Pedri won the Kopa Trophy, and Bellingham came in second. The English player decided to end his time with Borussia Dortmund in the summer, just as the German team was about to win the Bundesliga title. Last season was the best for the former Birmingham City star in terms of goals, but he is already on track to beat that in Spain as his game continues to improve. Because of his skills, Bellingham has become an important player for England.
It was already known that Bellingham was one of the best musicians of his age, and now he has joined a short but impressive list of greats. Since it was first made in 2018, Kylian Mbappe, Matthijs de Ligt, Pedri, and Gavi have all won the Kopa Trophy.
People think that the Madrid star will win the Ballon d’Or one day because he does so well playing for the Spanish giants. His performance in the Champions League has only made his skills stand out more.
