A Game Away From Equaling Cristiano Ronaldo’s Record, Real Madrid’s $111,000,000 Signing Achieves Rare Milestone

Real Madrid has had an incredible start to the La Liga season. Cristiano Ronaldo?s former club invested around $117 million in the transfer market this summer, which includes a staggering $111 million deal for Three Lions star, Jude Bellingham. The 20-year-old’s blockbuster signing has taken La Liga by storm. Bellingham has undoubtedly been the best player in the squad this month.

Fittingly, Bellingham has won the La Liga Player of the Month award for August for his outstanding performances on the pitch for Los Blancos.

Bellingham has a perfect start to the season

The Englishman, who joined Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund in a $111 million deal this summer, has quickly become a fan favorite this season. Bellingham netted four goals, and assisted one in three league matches for the Los Blancos since the start of La Liga.

Jude Bellingham has been the subject of much hype and expectation since his move to the Spanish capital. But with his performances on the pitch, it?s safe to say that he has begun delivering on those. Acknowledged by La Liga, Bellingham has been awarded August?s Player of the Month award for his starring gameplay.

By winning the La Liga player of the month award, Madrid?s new star signing has broken a record as well. Bellingham has become the first Englishman to win LaLiga?s Player of the Month award ever.

With the likes of David Beckham, Michael Owen and Steve McManaman among the English stars to have plied their trade in LaLiga, Bellingham becomes the first one to achieve this feat.

The 20-year-old English starlet, who has scored four out Madrid?s six goals since the start of the season, will be looking forward to matching Cristiano Ronaldo?s record when he steps up on the field next time. He has already scored the number of goals Ronaldo scored in his first three games for Los Blancos and will be looking to capitalize on that.

Bellingham is eyeing Cristiano Ronaldo?s feat

Jude Bellingham?s dream start to the season with Real Madrid has been outstanding. He scored in every fixture he took part in for Los Blancos and led them to top of the table. With his electric form, the Englishman is eyeing another record, which is currently held by Real Madrid legend, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Just like Bellingham, Ronaldo made his debut for Real Madrid 14 years ago and scored for the Los Blancos in his first four consecutive games. The 20-year-old midfielder has already scored in his first three games for the club, and now will be eyeing for netting another in his next game. Although, this poses a danger to Ronaldo?s 14-year-old record, Real Madrid will be hoping for Bellingham to continue his streak.
