Undoubtedly one of the best players in the world right now is Jude Bellingham. The 20-year-old midfielder joined Real Madrid last summer from Borussia Dortmund for more than $110 million and quickly became Los Merengues' star player. Karim Benzema's departure to Al-Ittihad and Vinicius Junior's injuries meant that he had to take on the responsibility of leading the team.

And he did, even exceeding the expectations of the most optimistic fans. He not only brought his quality and intelligence to handle the ball and his effort and physical display to defend, but he was also key in the opponent's box. In fact, he is the top scorer in La Liga with 13 goals in 19 games, while in the Champions League he has netted four times in six games.

However, Jude is not the only Bellingham who has come to the fore lately. His brother Jobe is also a soccer player and, at just 18 years of age, has attracted the attention of major clubs in Europe. His good performances with Sunderland in the Championship, England's second division, have been enough for that: he has scored 4 goals in 26 games this season.

According to the Daily Mail, one of the clubs most interested in signing Bellingham are Newcastle. The Magpies have had inconsistent performances this season and need players to help raise the team's level. That is why they targeted the young midfielder, in a transfer that could cause the ire of Sunderland fans. This is because between them and Newcastle there is a great rivalry.

They will have the chance to see him up close

Interestingly, Sunderland and Newcastle will face each other this Saturday in the FA Cup round of 64. There, the Premier League club's chiefs will have the opportunity to take a close look at Jobe Bellingham and his performances may be key to their decision on whether or not to sign him. According to the specialized website Transfermarkt, the young midfielder has a market value of almost $10 million.
