Tottenham Hotspur interested in Real Madrid superstar’s brother
Real Madrid are always on the lookout for the next big thing in football. The club’s transfer policy has shifted a lot from their Galactico era when they only signed the biggest names in the game. Now, they want to bring in youngsters and develop them into superstars. And they might have brought in a future Ballon d’Or winner in the recent summer transfer window.
Jude Bellingham was signed from Borussia Dortmund for a transfer package believed to be around €134 million, making him one of the biggest signings in Real Madrid history. And yet, he has exceeded every expectation since coming in.
Bellingham has established himself as the face of the club within months. And on current form, he might be the best player in the world.
On the other hand, his brother might be in line for a big move himself. As reported by Football Insider, Tottenham Hotspur are keeping close tabs on Jobe Bellingham.

Jobe is just 18 years of age and he came through the youth ranks at Birmingham City as well. But his development seems to have accelerated since joining Sunderland in the summer.
Jobe has started in every game in the Championship for Sunderland so far this season. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 3 goals and provided an assist in 17 appearances across all competitions.
Jobe has shown impressive versatility as well. He mostly plays in the number 10 role but can play deeper in midfield or even as a centre-forward.
Of course, it is undeniable that Jude’s success will lead to more interest in Jobe as well. Now, it is up to him to prove that he can perform at the top level. So far, he is on the right path. And it feels like only a matter of time before top-flight clubs come calling.
