Real Madrid Star footballer and one of England’s best players in the 2026 World Cup Jude Bellingham was a special guest on Friday Evening. He cheered on Birmingham City’s Football Team in St Andrews where they played against Barcelona. Bellingham’s own professional career began in Birmingham City, making this surprise appearance all the more emotional.
The story of Jude Bellingham with Birmingham City is an exciting one. He joined the Academy at the young age of 7 years old and quickly climbed the ranks to join the first team at 16 years old and 38 days thereby becoming the youngest ever player to wear the Birmingham Blues shirt. After 44 matches, scoring 4 goals and becoming one of the stars for Championship, he joined Borussia Dortmund in summer 2020.
But his stint in Birmingham City’s football team was iconic that the team retired the number 22 shirt in Bellingham’s honour. All of this was achieved at just the age of 17.
So, it serves as no surprise that Jude Bellingham was the star VIP of this match. Despite the many Barcelona football players on the pitch that night, plenty of eyes were on Bellingham, cherished and loved by many fans in Birmingham.
