This season marks his debut at Real Madrid following his transfer from Borussia Dortmund in the summer, and the 20-year-old has been nothing short of astonishing. In just nine matches for the club, he has already netted eight goals. His most recent goal came during the 3-2 victory over Napoli in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Bellingham’s scoring prowess was evident right from the start of the season, as he found the back of the net in Real Madrid’s opening Champions League match against Union Berlin, securing a 1-0 victory. This achievement puts him in elite company, as he emulates Cristiano Ronaldo, who accomplished a similar feat after joining the club from Manchester United in 2009.
