Is Jude Bellingham your ultimate football hero? A powerful, skilful midfielder with maturity beyond his years, Bellingham first caught the world’s attention in Germany’s Bundesliga before making his England debut as a teenager.
Now starring for Real Madrid, one of the most famous clubs in world football, Bellingham has quickly become a fan favourite – admired for his drive, leadership and ability to rise to the biggest occasions.
Discover how talent, hard work and belief helped Bellingham race from academy prospect to global superstar – and why he’s one of the most exciting players of his generation.
Football Superstars is a fast-paced, highly visual series combining comic-style cartoons, clear storytelling and a lively cast of characters who add jokes, quotes and commentary throughout.
