Fascinating footage shows a glimpse of Jude Bellingham's elite pre-match ritual

Jude Bellingham's pre-match ritual shows he has an elite mentality at such a tender age.

Bellingham has been magnificent in his debut season at Real Madrid following his transfer from Borussia Dortmund last summer.

He has an impressive 21 goals to his name this campaign, including four goals in the Champions League.

With the La Liga title on course to return to Madrid, Bellingham will be hoping to inspire his side to European glory.

Real face Bayern Munich for a spot in this season's Champions League final, which takes place at Wembley Stadium in London, England.

The Spanish giants meet Bayern at the Allianz Arena for the first leg ahead of next week's second leg at the Bernabeu.

And ahead of the game kicking off, TNT Sports gave an insight into Bellingham's pre-match ritual.

Footage showed the 20-year-old walking onto the pitch on his own and visualising the game.

The star midfielder has spoken about his pre-match ritual, explaining: "I like to visualise the game. See the field, the grass, my playing positions... This way I feel calmer, I know where I am going to be on the field.

"It is something that I have been doing throughout my career and thanks to it I enter the matches without nerves and prepared for everything. They taught me this from a very young age and I continue to practice it."

Real have an incredible 14 European titles in the trophy cabinet and will be eyeing their 15th triumph this season.

Bellingham could be set for a stunning double-winning campaign in his first season in Spain.
