Jude Bellingham gave his first interview as a Real Madrid player. The English midfielder spoke to his current club's press and said that he has "never felt so proud in his life".
"Joining this club, with all the players who have played here, the 14 European Cups behind me. It's an unforgettable moment. When I look at them I think I want to win more and add my name to the history of this club because it has become so big. That's why I'm so happy to be here," he began.
"My greatest quality is that I can do a bit of everything. That's my best strength and it allows me to play in different positions on the pitch. I like to dribble and win tackles, that's the most fun, but I think my strongest point is that I can do a bit of everything."
The England international said he would like to learn as much as possible during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium: "It's an honour to play with these players, to learn from them and hopefully win with them.
"It's nice when you can absorb so much from your teammates on and off the pitch. I'm going to be like a sponge while I'm here and learn from everyone," he added.
Furthermore, the 19-year-old praised his current manager Carlo Ancelotti: "He's a special coach. His achievements and the trophies he has won speak for themselves. His comments about me were very special and influenced me in my decision. I'm looking forward to playing for him and giving it everything for him."
