To whom much is given, much is expected. Jude Bellingham has been the hype of the internet since last season and the young English guy is living upto the hype. The gift of the iconic no 5 jersey is an honour and prestige.
Concerning his position in the midfield when there's Kroos and Modric. I do not think there will be any kind of contention. Jude will always start for Ancelotti and the old guys are aware of it that they are there for the experience and flawles transition to the younger ones.
I agree with your position that wearing the number 5 jersey in Real Madrid is a big responsibility because of the quality of Zidane. He was a legend as his jersey is reserved for only players that the club believes will replicate such performance. I am sure Jude Bellingham will not disappoint because he has grown to become a strong and mature midfielder. Luka Modric and Toni Kroos would have to be mentors to the young English superstar and they will serve as viable substitute. I have so much respect for Modric because he was not influenced by money. He had the opportunity to make more money in the Saudi League but he preferred to follow his passion to remain in Real Madrid.
Since the renewal of Mbappe's contract where he was given rights and incentive more than the other two super stars, things has not been well with the club, the trio stars and the fans. Mbappe is at PSG against his will but for money. But with his recent statement, it is obvious to the blind that he is not the candidate of PSG.
He eyes champions league;
He eyes Balon D'or
Mbappe wants to leave PSG because he looks like an adventurous player. The money and privilege PSG gave to him were what motivated him to sign his recent deal that will expire in 2026. But it seems he is not comfortable with the club anymore. He is a good player with a high ego. Mbappe always wants to be the center of attraction in a club. He wants to get all the attention so he has to go to a club that will tolerate his excesses
