BELLINGHAM brothers Jude and Jobe are big names in football and have both represented England in international clashes.
Read on to find out more about Jobe Bellingham, his career so far and his family.
Jobe Bellingham is the younger brother of Real Madrid and England midfielder Jude Bellingham.
He was born in Stourbridge on 23 September, 2005, two years after his brother.
Jobe began his career in Birmingham City‘s academy and made his first team debut for them at the age of 16.
He also made his international debut with the England under-16s against Northern Ireland in 2021.
Jobe’s been tipped for big things.
Sunderland caretaker manager Mike Dodds, who coached the pair for years at Birmingham City’s academy, said in December 2023 he thinks Jobe will follow his brother Jude all the way to the top.
He can go to the very top. I’ve worked with a lot of young players and he would be up there with the very best.”

El Nacional reported that Real Madrid scouts were present to watch the younger Bellingham in action for England’s Under-19’s against Montenegro on October 11, 2023.
Jobe Bellingham played in midfield and up front for Sunderland in the 2023/24 season.
He made his debut for the club on 6 August, 2023, in the team’s opening match of the season against Ipswich Town.
He’s made a big impact on the team – including scoring what was described as a screamer of a goal against Southampton.
Despite a flurry of attention from a number of Premier League sides, he opted to remain at the Championship side for the 2024/25 season.
He’s reported to be putting his faith in the club’s aim to reach the Premier League after an eight year absence.
It was claimed that the teenager plans to remain at the Stadium of Light for at least one more season.
Jobe has also represented England at all age-group levels up to under-20.
In June 2024 he played the first 65 minutes of a friendly against Sweden, which England went on to win 2–1.
Jude and Jobe are the sons of Denise and Mark Bellingham.
Mark Bellingham was a sergeant with the West Midlands Police, and also played non-League football.
He last played as a striker for Southam United before he retired from the game in 2019.
He’s now a licensed Fifa agent after passing the governing body’s required exams.
Denise Bellingham works in human resources – and Jude says she’s key to his and Jobe’s footballing success.
