David Beckham has sent a message to Jude Bellingham following his LaLiga title win with Real Madrid.
Los Blancos are now champions of Spain for the 36th time in their illustrious history, following their 3-0 win against Cadiz on Saturday afternoon.
Goals from Brahim Diaz, Bellingham himself and Joselu secured the win at the Bernabeu, before all eyes focused on Barcelona's result which would ultimately decide the title.

Xavi Hernandez's side were beaten 4-2 by Girona, which ensured Madrid would be crowned champions for the 2023/24 season.
It rounds off an impressive debut campaign in the top flight of Spanish football for Bellingham, who has scored 18 goals and added a further four assists throughout the current season so far.
The midfielder has since taken to his personal Instagram account to post a picture with the caption: "Champions of Spain. Hala Madrid."

Former Real Madrid and England man Beckham replied to the image in the comments section, where he said: "Well done mate. Campeones." With a white heart emoji attached to it.
While the team will celebrate following the win over the weekend, attention will then have to turn to the upcoming Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich on Wednesday evening.

Ancelotti's side secured a 2-2 win away from home in the first leg, thanks to a brace from Vinicius Junior, and will now look to progress past Harry Kane and his teammates in the coming days.
“We have to put our joy on ice because we have a very important game ahead of us on Wednesday,” the Madrid boss said.
“We have played a spectacular Spanish league season. We have been very consistent and rarely slipped up. We have to recover, rest and play our best against Bayern.”
Should Madrid get the job done against Bayern, then they will have the opportunity to complete a league and Champions League double when the final takes place at Wembley Stadium on June 1.
