Jude Bellingham, the young and talented football star, has added another feather to his cap as he was recently named the world's best footballer according to Top Trumps' latest rankings. This recognition comes on the heels of his impressive performance at the Champions League final at Wembley last weekend. Bellingham beat out renowned players like Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi to clinch the number one spot in the popular card game's latest release.
The 'World Football Stars Top 200' ranks the top 200 players from every league around the world, including both men and women. This highly-anticipated release is expected to hit the shelves in June and will evaluate players based on key categories such as age, goals, trophies, height, and caps. According to a spokesperson from Top Trumps, Bellingham's extraordinary talent, versatility on the field, and remarkable impact at such a young age were the deciding factors that placed him at the top spot.
Not only is Bellingham highly valued in terms of his market worth, but his ability to dominate the midfield, coupled with his leadership qualities and consistent performance in top-tier competitions, makes him an inspiration and solidifies his place as the number one player. With the European Championship in Germany coming up this summer, Bellingham will be looking to add yet another trophy to his already impressive haul.
Despite the quick turnaround after the Champions League final, the 20-year-old did not feature in England's first pre-tournament friendly against Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, he is eager to make a return to Gareth Southgate's starting line-up for their upcoming match against Iceland on Friday. Speaking about Bellingham's first season in Spain, where he also won La Liga, Southgate was full of praise for the young midfielder.
"He's had a fantastic season," Southgate said on Sunday. "To join the biggest club in the world and perform at such a high level throughout the season, it's been an incredible year for him. I'm absolutely delighted for him." Bellingham's future looks bright, and with his impressive achievements at such a young age, he is set to become one of the top players in the world.
