MADRID: Jude Bellingham's decision to join Real Madrid was not driven by money but by a desire to contribute to the Spanish side's rich footballing history, the England international said on Thursday .
"Money is not a thing for me. I don't think about money at all when I make these kind of decisions. I never have, I never will. I play the game purely out of love," Bellingham told reporters. Bellingham will join a formidable Real midfield featuring veterans Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, as well as talented younger players like Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni.
The 19-year-old will wear the number five shirt, the same number that ex-Real midfielder Zinedine Zidane, who left the club in 2006, wore during his five-year spell in Madrid as a player.
