Jude Bellingham thinks he has “disappointed” his boss, Carlo Ancelotti, by failing to learn the Spanish language in the current campaign.
🗣️ Jude Bellingham: “I know that I am disappointing him in one aspect… I still don’t speak Spanish. I’m sorry, but I’m encountering unexpected obstacles with this language. It’s difficult for me, I admit it. In any case, I promise the maximum commitment, guaranteed.” pic.twitter.com/JS1sh9B3Yq

Jude switched from Borussia Dortmund to Los Blancos in the past summer transfer window and has been phenomenal for his new side ever since, netting 15 goals in 17 matches as he also took home the 2023 Golden Boy trophy.
The English midfielder finally picked up his award the past weekend and, while he was very happy to receive his trophy, Bellingham revealed 1 thing that he has yet to do to satisfy his Italian head coach.
“It’s in my understanding that I’m disappointing Carlo in 1 aspect. I just don’t speak Spanish yet. I’m sorry, but it’s still very hard to understand more Spanish words. It’s not an easy task, I admit. Anyway, I promise that I will learn it, guaranteed.”
