WE all knew that Jude Bellingham could walk the walk.
Now it looks like he can talk the talk, too.
Since emerging as a world-class talent, Bellingham has been encouraged to keep his own counsel.
His dad, Mark Bellingham, who also acts as his son’s agent, appears to have a serious dislike of the media – and the written Press in particular.
Which seems odd, considering all we’ve done is shower the England and Real Madrid sensation with rightful praise.
It means that despite having taken part in two major tournaments with the Three Lions and joined the biggest club in the world, Bellingham has still to sit down with English scribes to discuss his meteoric rise to the top.
So imagine our surprise – shock even in some quarters – when he emerged at the top table of Real’s press conference at The Etihad ahead of their Champions League showdown against Manchester City earlier this week.
