Jude Bellingham tips future Golden Boy Award winners

• Jude Bellingham has named three players for the Golden Boy award.
• Bellingham was recently awarded the 2023 Golden Boy.
• Bellingham also admitted that he is still struggling to learn Spanish.

Jude Bellingham, a standout midfielder for Real Madrid, has disclosed the names of players who could one day receive the Golden Boy award.

Bellingham received the Golden Boy title for 2023 last month as a result of his incredible accomplishments during the year with both his former and present team, Borussia Dortmund.

“I will say three names. First of all, Arda Güler, is a phenomenon, we see him training and we are delighted with him. Then my former teammate Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, from Borussia Dortmund. And finally, my brother Jobe,” Bellingham told the Italian sports newspaper.

It should be mentioned that Bellingham will be presented with the Golden Boy Award on Monday night in Turin.

Presented annually to the top football player under the age of 21, the Golden Boy award was first introduced in 2003 by the Italian publication Tuttosport. Prominent figures who have won the trophy include Paul Pogba, Mario Gotze, Wayne Rooney, Lionel Messi, Cesc Fabregas, and most recently, Pablo Gavi of Barcelona.

“I want to thank my Real Madrid teammates and the entire squad, Mr. Ancelotti, the president, my family, my mother Denise, my father Mark, my younger brother Jobe, the friends who have bombarded me and pleasantly flooded me, with messages of congratulations and who continue to do so. Without all these people, without their help on and off the field, their constant encouragement and without ever forgetting the fans that support me, I would not have been able to win the Golden Boy,” Bellingham added.

But he acknowledged that, when it comes to speaking Spanish, he is disappointing Ancelotti.

“I know that I am disappointing him [Ancelotti] in one aspect… I still don’t speak Spanish. I’m sorry, but I’m encountering unexpected obstacles with this language. It’s difficult for me, I admit it. In any case, I promise the maximum commitment, guaranteed,” he said.

“I put my efforts and a fierce commitment to improve myself with the work, but the merit is for Mr. Ancelotti who found the right position for me and gave me more freedom on the pitch,” he added.
