Jude Bellingham is already at Real Madrid after weeks of negotiations with Borussia Dortmund and aims to be one of the most exciting players of the team. The 19-year-old midfielder arrives for a fee of around 103 million euros and will be given the number 5 shirt that Zinedine Zidane wore in his prime. However, one player does not seem to be entirely happy with his arrival.
The signing of Bellingham is understandable because of the need to further strengthen one of the best squads in Europe, such as Real Madrid. However, it is also due to the age of Luka Modric and the uncertain future of Toni Kross, who could be living their last season at the level we are used to at the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, the case of the Croatian is certainly worth analyzing. The player has not yet decided his future and certainly has the level to remain a starter, at least for another year. However, the arrival of Bellingham certainly reduces the club's need for his presence. Therefore, the midfielder values having a new adventure considering that Real Madrid's squad is already strong enough.
The midfielder's entourage is more in favor of his departure to Saudi Arabia with the exception of his wife. Faced with this situation, his representatives have raised with Real Madrid the possibility of an improved new contract, something that Real Madrid have completely refused, as reported by Eduardo Inda in El Chiringuito de Jugones. Thus, the final decision will be up to the player.
