Real Madrid legend Kaka has expressed that it is an honor for him to be compared to Jude Bellingham.
Bellingham, 20, joined Real Madrid last summer and has quickly become one of the standout stars at the Bernabeu. He had a remarkable season, ending it as both a league and European champion.
The England international played a key role in Real Madrid’s Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, providing the assist for Vinicius Jr.’s goal to make it 2-0.
Bellingham has been tipped as a potential Ballon d’Or winner and has drawn comparisons to Kaka.
“For me, it’s a privilege of course because Jude is doing really, really great. Even if I don’t like comparisons much, because I think everyone is different, everyone has their own background and history, but to be compared to Jude it’s a privilege,” he told 90mins.
“He’s amazing, what he’s doing not just now but also what he did with Dortmund and what he’s done with the national team. He’s building his career, it’s really, really good.”
