Buzzing Real Madrid fans concoct new name for Jude Bellingham after mimicking Luka Modric with outrageous trivela assist
REAL MADRID fans have created a new nickname for Jude Bellingham after his latest moment of magic.
The £115million summer arrival has started life at the Bernabeu with a bang after scoring seven goals in his first eight games.
He has quickly become one of the first names on the teamsheet and proved why once more against league leaders Girona.
In the 17th minute Bellingham picked up the ball on the left flank and picked out Joselu with a perfect cross using the outside of his foot, teeing the striker up to score.
Real fans were left in awe by the skill and christened Bellingham ‘Luka’ – after club legend Luka Modric.
One reacted by simply saying: “Jude Luka Bellingham ”
Another added: “Luka Bellingham.”
A third simply wrote: “Jude Bellingham trivela assist just like Luka Modrić… ”
And another commented: “Bellingham learned well from Modric.
Modric’s outside-of-the-foot passes and crosses have become a trademark in recent years.
