Real Madrid attacking midfielder Jude Bellingham has revealed that he received a supportive message from Jadon Sancho ahead of the UEFA Champions League final on Saturday at Wembley Stadium.
Bellingham and Sancho were former teammates at Borussia Dortmund before both players left for Real Madrid and Manchester United, respectively.
In an interview with Real Madrid’s media channel, Bellingham was asked if he had been in touch with any Dortmund players ahead of the Champions League final.
The 20-year-old said, “I haven’t been speaking with any of them this week. When we first advanced, I got a little message from Jadon. So, I spoke with Sancho. Just saying, ‘I will see you there’, and all those kinds of things.
“Jadon’s always been someone who’s taken me under his wing when I first arrived at Dortmund. He’s a really good guy. He’s helped me a lot.”
