Jude Bellingham is one of the players of the moment. The Englishman is having a great season at Real Madrid and has shown it with goals on the pitch. Without a doubt, the player has had a great performance. One of the things that stands out about Bellingham is the ease with which he has adapted to Madrid. This, in turn, has been a boon for Carlo Ancelotti

It should be noted that Jude has been of interest to several teams for several seasons. Even during his time at BVB Dortmund, his father received constant offers for the player. Despite having offers from the Premier League, it seems that returning to England was not a very viable option for Bellingham's so his destination at the moment seemed to be different.

At the same time, one of the big interested parties was Real Madrid. One of the things that has stood out about Florentino Perez is the constant effort to sign the best players in the world and in the case of Bellingham this has been no exception. Despite the fact that many expected the bombshell signing of Kylian Mbappé, it seems that things were changing in the fan's perspective.

Similarly, Kylian Mbappe's future remains uncertain. Until a few months ago, Bellingham's future was uncertain. With this said, according to national and international media, The Three Lions player had another offer in Spain from FC Barcelona. Nevertheless, the anecdote of Bellingham's meeting with Barcelona is not entirely positive. Here's why.

Bellingham's father's anecdote with Barcelona

According to GOAL, Jude Bellingham's father, Mark Bellingham, had a meeting with Bojan Krkic Sr., who has been a long-time scout for Barcelona, and the two had a meeting in London a while ago. However, according to Krkic, the player's father never showed up. In turn, this seems to have shown that Jude was only interested in one team and that was Real Madrid
