Jude Bellingham reminds me a bit of Zinedine Zidane for his quality,” said Ronaldo Nazario, who played a total of 140 games alongside the Frenchman. After playing a match in Essex, England, organised by betting firm ‘Paddy Power’, the Brazilian legend spoke to the media to address two of the most topical issues concerning Real Madrid: Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé.

The English midfielder arrived at the LaLiga club last summer, and it took him just a few months to become a star. Madrid’s former striker himself has been very attentive to Bellingham’s performances in the white jersey, admitting “I love the way Jude Bellingham plays.”

Ronaldo: “Mbappé will win the Ballon d’Or at Real Madrid”

I love to see him play the way he is playing at Real Madrid, scoring goals in almost every game. He’s always going forward. I was watching some games at the (Santiago) Bernabéu and I noticed Bellingham. I was very surprised by his quality. The speed at which he runs into the box, you can see he wants to score goals all the time.”

And from someone who is already a Real Madrid idol to someone who could soon become one. Ronaldo Nazário is cautious about the signing of Kylian Mbappé for Real Madrid, stating that “we have to wait until it is official to talk in detail. I don’t know what’s true, but there is talk about his situation at PSG”. However, the Madrid legend also shares the excitement of a large part of the fans: “Everyone is excited about Kylian Mbappé at Madrid”.

In the words of Ronald Nazário, the Paris Saint-Germain forward is “an incredible player. He is going to be one of the best players of the moment. I think [Madrid] is a very good option for him and that he will eventually win the Ballon d’Or if he joins Real Madrid. I’m sure at Madrid he will have a team that will support him in every decision he makes, on and off the pitch. They will protect him. But I think he had a great time at PSG.”

Ronaldo Nazário also spoke about Erling Haaland: “Real Madrid’s policy is to have the best players in the world. (Erling) Haaland is one of the best players in the world. Everyone wants to have Haaland.”

”He is at an incredible club. Manchester City are doing an incredible job, I think he is very happy there at the moment, but we will see. I hope we can see all those players together at one club. It will remind me of the Galácticos if they (Haaland, Mbappé and Bellingham) all end up at Real Madrid.”

“If it happens (that they all sign for Real Madrid), it will be crazy. To see Real Madrid play with all those players together. It will be an incredible team that will achieve remarkable things. It will be a big challenge for Carlo Ancelotti to manage all those players, but bringing good players together is easier than bringing bad players together. It won’t be a big problem for the coach,” added the Brazilian.
