Jude Bellingham set to receive huge bonus if Real Madrid win Champions League

Jude Bellingham and his Real Madrid teammates are likely to receive a significant bonus if they win the Champions League next month.

On Saturday Real Madrid were crowned La Liga champions, wrapping up the title after beating relegation candidates Cadiz 3-0 and watching Barcelona lose 4-2 to Catalan rivals Girona.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side have lost just once all season, at Atletico Madrid back in September, while they are unbeaten in the last 28 league encounters.

Indeed, Los Blancos’ domestic dominance across the campaign can be credited to one player in particular - Jude Bellingham.

The England international has endeared himself to the Real support and media, having scored 18 league goals and acted as a creative outlet for his teammates.

Real still have the small matter of the Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich on Wednesday, with the scores locked at 2-2.

Should Ancelotti’s men make it to the final and ultimately claim their record-extending 15th European Cup, Bellingham and co are likely to receive a sizeable bonus.

Indeed, as per Marca, in the 2021-22 season, the players and staff received around €450,000 (£386,000) net in bonuses for winning the Spanish Super Cup, La Liga and the Champions League.

Football Espana alleged earlier this term that a bonus kitty of £3million had been split between the players and members of the coaching team ahead of the final of the Super Cup, which ultimately saw Real dispatch Barcelona 4-1.

In turn, it’s safe to assume Real players and staff will be set for another sizeable bonus should they wrap up the Champions League alongside the league title.

Elsewhere, Bellingham revealed the emotional reason he opted for the No.5 shirt at Real.

He said: “My father always wore a Real Madrid shirt around the house with 'Zidane' on the back, which is funny because, in a way, it has come full circle.

“He gave it to me when I arrived here in the summer. He always wore it and I always asked him: 'Who is this guy you have on your shirt?' And he always answered: 'When you're older, we'll see him on YouTube...' And now that I'm wearing No.5, it has ended up being a quite significant story. Really special to me.”
