Real Madrid midfielder, Jude Bellingham, has said the Champions League final is “a game I’ve dreamt of all my life”.
Bellingham is preparing to face his former club Borussia Dortmund in Saturday’s showpiece at Wembley Stadium.
The 20-year-old has already enjoyed an impressive debut season in Spain, scoring 19 league goals to help fire Los Blancos to the LaLiga title.
Bellingham has also made 10 appearances in the Champions League for Madrid this season, scoring four goals.
“I’m really excited. [The final] is a game I’ve been dreaming of since I started playing football,” Bellingham said.
“I understand the opportunity and I don’t want to waste a second… It’s a game I’ve dreamed of all my life.
“It would be stupid now to get here and want to hide away from the occasion.”
