Jude Bellingham breaks goalscoring Real Madrid record set by Cristiano Ronaldo as England star nets his FOURTEENTH goal for Spanish giants during 3-0 win over Cadiz

Jude Bellingham made history on Sunday night as he broke a long-standing Real Madrid record set by none other than Cristiano Ronaldo. 

The Birmingham City academy graduate marked his return to the Madrid squad - following a shoulder injury - with a goal during their 3-0 win over Cadiz. 

Bellingham was on hand, in the 74th minute, to smash the ball into the back of the net after some neat build-up play from Brazilian winger Rodrygo. 

In doing so, the 20-year-old netted his 11th league goal, 14th in all competitions, since making his £113million move from Borussia Dortmund in summer. 

While the England star will be thrilled with his emphatic start, he'll be even more delighted when he realises the record which he broke on Sunday. 

By scoring his 14th goal for Madrid, Bellingham surpassed football icon Ronaldo for the most goals scored in their opening 15 matches at the club. 

The Al-Nassr forward had previously led the record-sheet with his 13 goals tying him with fellow club legend Alfredo Di Stéfano. 

It serves as the latest impressive accomplishment on the youngster's record, who recently made history by claiming the Kopa Trophy at the Ballon d'Or awards. 

As revealed by Mail Sport, Bellingham is wanted by Louis Vuitton for a multi-million-pound endorsement deal in the latest sign that the England midfielder has reached the ranks of the sporting megastars.

The luxury French fashion house only work with sporting icons — they ran an advertising campaign with Lionel Messi and Ronaldo before last year’s World Cup, following a campaign featuring Pele, Diego Maradona and Zinedine Zidane ahead of the 2010 tournament — and are now targeting the 20-year-old from Stourbridge.

Bellingham has a keen interest in fashion and wore a Louis Vuitton suit with flared trousers to the Ballon d’Or awards in Paris last month.

The former Borussia Dortmund starlet also attended the house's men's spring-summer 2024 fashion show in the French capital in June alongside his younger brother Jobe after taking part in the first batch of England's Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and Macedonia. 

On Sunday, Madrid stormed to victory over Cadiz after a brace from Rodrygo and Bellingham's late strike. 

The victory sees Ancelotti's side surpass Girona at the summit of the LaLiga table, having now won 11 out of their 14 opening matches.

Bellingham missed out on Madrid's recent victories over Valencia and Braga, in the Champions League, as he struggled with a shoulder injury. 

The 20-year-old was called up by Gareth Southgate for England, but forced to return to Madrid to continue building back his fitness ahead of post-international their clash with Cadiz and their Champions League tie with Napoli midweek.
