Jude Bellingham has been held aloft as an ‘unbelievable player’ by one of Real Madrid’s all-time greats. 

The 20-year-old has torched the history books since his £113million summer switch from Borussia Dortmund.

He bagged 14 goals in his first 15 Madrid games, eclipsing the previous record of 13 held by Cristiano Ronaldo, Alfredo Di Stefano, and Pruden Sanchez. 

Zinedine Zidane has been overjoyed – but not surprised – by the Englishman’s scintillating form in the Spanish capital. 

‘He’s an unbelievable player who does incredible things,’ Zidane told Adidas via Mundo Deportivo.

‘You could have imagined what he was going to do, but he’s surpassed all the statistics with what he’s doing. 

‘Don’t forget that he’s only 20 years old. He arrived at Real Madrid with a lot of desire, a lot of goals and he is setting the bar very high. 

He’s just showing everyone what he is and it’s great to see him like that. 

‘I’m a big fan of his and now we want him to win trophies with Real Madrid. It’s everything he wanted for himself.

While Zidane purports not to be taken aback by Bellingham’s red-hot form, he is changing games in a way unlike he had ever before. 

At Borussia Dortmund he played in a much deeper role and was not typically a blistering goal-scorer, though he did bag 14 strikes in his last season there. 

Deployed as a number 10 by Carlo Ancelotti, he has already scored 20 goals and registered eight assists.

Even from his debut against Athletic Bilbao, in which he scored, he earned comparisons with Zidane for his swagger and guile. 

Zidane, currently out of work as a manager, led Real Madrid to three Champions League and two LaLiga titles in the dugout.

His haul at the club as a player included one LaLiga crown and a Champions League gong – as well as a legendary winner in the 2002 final.

Bellingham will be hoping for even more than that and has already scored more in a single season than Zidane ever did for Los Blancos.
