Well written article, I'm curious what becomes of Bellingham in Madrid, he's got every reason to be an absolute world beater.

I'm a Barcelona fan so it brings me no pleasure to say this, but Madrid really seem to be transitioning their midfield well, if they actually trust Tchouameni again and move Camavinga back where he belongs. Having the options of Cama, Tchou, Bellingham and Valverde to start and Modric and Kroos as bench players would be insane if managed right. I think he will be an important part of their new chapter.

Always very cool to see a top English player playing outside the UK. That kind of experience is something which I think a lot of English players could benefit from.
