After being the runner-up in 2021 to Pedri, Jude Bellingham has now clinched the prestigious Kopa Trophy. The award was presented to him during the Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris held on Monday evening.
Bellingham’s commanding presence as a midfielder for Dortmund in the previous season was evident, missing just three Bundesliga games and contributing significantly with 14 goals and seven assists across all competitions. His impactful performances were instrumental in Borussia Dortmund’s intense pursuit of the league title, which ended in a heart-wrenching manner on the final day with a defeat against Mainz, leaving Bayern Munich as champions. Additionally, Bellingham made an impression at the 2022 World Cup, notably scoring in England’s opening match against Iran.”
