Jude Bellingham could not help but blush after being told about Gary Lineker’s prediction about him at the Ballon d’Or.

Both are in attendance at Paris’ Theatre du Chatelet where the Ballon d’Or ceremony is being held where Bellingham arrived after it was announced he’d finished 18th in the rankings.

Lineker, who arrived earlier, revealed that he believed that the Real Madrid superstar would win at least one Ballon d’Or in the next five years.

And after being told of the England legend’s prediction, Bellingham could not help but cut a slightly embarrassed figure.

“Wasn’t me, was it? Ah.. that’s very nice,” he smiled as he spoke briefly on the red carpet.

The 20-year-old was still in high spirits after his incredible performance at the weekend.

In his first El Clasico since signing for Real Madrid in the summer, he proved pivotal as Los Blancos came back to beat Barcelona 2-1.

The midfielder nabbed the equaliser in sensational form by letting loose a rocket from 30 yards.

But he was not done yet as he went on to net the winner in injury-time in dramatic fashion.

Speaking about it on the red carpet, he said: “I watched El Clasico as a little kid.

“It was a really emotional game for me. It means a lot to play for the biggest club in the world and to wear that shirt, honestly, I still get goosebumps right now.”

Bellingham has made an electric start to life in Madrid where he has scored 13 times in 13 appearances, as well as three assists.

That includes three goals in the Champions League while he is already a fan favourite at the Bernabeu.
