A compilation of Jude Bellingham’s highlights during his Real Madrid debut against AC Milan has gone viral.
Last month, Bellingham became the most expensive British player after sealing a move to Madrid worth a reported fee of £113 million.
On Sunday, Los Blancos were up against Serie A giants Milan in Pasadena, California as they begin their pre-season fixtures.

Bellingham was thrown straight into a midfield four alongside Toni Kroos, Federico Valverde and Eduardo Camavinga.
However, Madrid found themselves 2-0 down after goals from Fikayo Tomori and Luka Romero.
After making several changes during the half-time break, Madrid came back to win 3-2 courtesy of a brace from Valverde and a goal from Vinicius Jr.
Bellingham was taken off in the 63rd minute after a more than decent debut for his new club.

The former Borussia Dortmund man showed glimpses of what he is capable of as he produced some very neat passes and provided energy in the middle of the park.
