Jude Bellingham is offically a Real Madrid player with the Spanish super club announcing his move from Borussia Dortmund. The teenage England international joins a star-studded midfield in the Spanish capital.
Ednews reports that Real Madrid on Wednesday announced the signing of Jude Bellingham, with the English midfielder signing a six-year contract with the club.
Bellingham, 19, has spent the last three years with Borussia Dortmund and was recently named the Bundesliga's Player of the Season.
Dortmund confirmed the transfer last week, saying the deal will be worth €103 million ($110 million) plus up to 30% extra in performance-related add-ons over the next six seasons.
After coming through the academy system of English second-division side Birmingham City, Bellingham joined Dortmund in 2020 and made 132 total appearances for the club, scoring 24 goals and setting up 25 more.
Dortmund had been hoping to receive as much as €150m for their star player, but have settled for silghtly less. As agreed back in 2020, Birmingham will receive 5% of Bellingham’s sell-on fee.
Long rumored to move back to England, Bellingham now joins a star-studded Real Madrid midfield that boasts veterans Toni Kroos and Luka Modric as well as budding talents Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga and Fede Valverde.
