"Why I picked jersey no 5 " - Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham reveals

New signing for Real Madrid Jude Bellingham has revealed why he chose jersey number 5.

The 19-year-old signed a long-term contract with Los Blancos for somewhere around 100 million pounds. 

The young English international was acquired by Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund, and he will wear the number 5.

After a satisfactory physical, Jude Bellingham received the jersey earlier today at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

He said to the media that Zinedine Zidane, his football hero, had a big effect on his decision to wear the shirt. 

The former Real Madrid icon received accolades from Bellingham for his commitment to the game. 

"I really admire Zidane and the legacy he has at this club with the number 5," the English star remarked. "It’s a number that inspires me. "
