England star Jude Bellingham tipped to ‘finish career’ at Arsenal or Man Utd
'I can definitely see that.'


Real Madrid star and England midfielder Jude Bellingham has been tipped to ‘finish his career’ in the Premier League at one of three clubs.
Bellingham has enjoyed a fantastic start to his Real Madrid career, winning a La Liga and Champions League double in his first season at the Bernabeu.
The 21-year-old scored 23 goals in all competitions last season and has continued to impress this term, although Madrid could well fall short in both the La Liga title race and Champions League.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side have slipped four points behind La Liga leaders Barcelona, while they have a three-goal deficit to overturn in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Arsenal.
Given his influence at the Bernabeu, Bellingham is expected to be at Real Madrid for the best part of the next decade.

Ally McCoist envisages the former Birmingham City star to be at the Spanish giants ‘for a good few years yet’ but believes a return to England in the future is inevitable.
Bellingham only spent one season in Birmingham’s first-team before being signed by Borussia Dortmund and McCoist expects him to ‘end his career’ in English football.
As for which clubs Bellingham – one of the best players in the world – could join, McCoist named Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City as possible destinations.
Asked whether he could see Bellingham returning to play on these shores, McCoist told talkSPORT Bet: ‘Yes, I think he will come back eventually.
‘But not any time soon. He’ll be at Real Madrid for a good few years yet. When the time’s right, he’ll assess his options.
‘Maybe a stronger Man United, maybe Arsenal, maybe Man City. But I can definitely see him ending his career in England.’
Bellingham targets Champions League miracle
Real Madrid will have to produce a miracle to avoid Champions League elimination after losing 3-0 to Arsenal in the first leg of their quarter-final tie.
Ancelotti’s team were blown away by two Declan Rice free-kicks and Mikel Merino’s crisp strike at the Emirates Stadium last week.
Reacting to Real Madrid’s shock defeat, Bellingham said: ‘We were nowhere near it. That’s the fact and Arsenal were really good.
‘I know two of their goals were free-kicks but they could have had way more.
There is a second leg and that’s what we’re holding on to. We need something really special, something crazy really but one place where crazy things happen is our house.
‘We’ve got 90 more minutes at home to pull something out of the bag. We’re still alive, we’ve got 90 mins of football and anything can happen at the Bernabeu.’
Bellingham’s brother tipped for summer move
Jude Bellingham’s younger brother Jobe has been tipped for a summer move following his impressive form for Championship play-off hopefuls Sunderland.
McCoist believes the England U21 star will be on the move at the end of the season and says he could follow his brother’s example by moving to a European club.
‘I do see him moving,’ McCoist added. ‘But to be honest, I think there’s a bigger chance he goes abroad, maybe following Jude’s path.
‘That worked out brilliantly for his brother. If he stays in England, I could see him at a club like Crystal Palace. They’ve done well with signings like Adam Wharton and Jefferson Lerma.
‘Jobe would fit right in there. But again, a move to Europe wouldn’t surprise me at all.’
