Tottenham Hotspur star James Maddison mocked Jude Bellingham in England training by mimicking his now-famous celebration after the Real Madrid star was unhappy with Kalvin Phillips.
The Manchester City star and Jude Bellingham were pitted against one another in England training where the duo had to face one another, with a ball on a cone in the middle of the two and the first to grab the ball wins.
The task required you to listen to instructions from a coach, such as touching your head, back or knees, when told to do so, before you are told to grab the ball.
But Kalvin Phillips, as you can see on the video posted by England’s YouTube account, already had the ball in hand way before he was told to grab it, which left Bellingham perplexed.
The 20-year-old pointed towards the camera to protest by saying ‘did you see that?’, before Tottenham midfielder James Maddison entered the picture.
The Spurs star just pulled a confused and baffled Bellingham away, before standing in front of him and doing his now-iconic celebration, as you can see in the below video (3m34secs).
Bellingham running the show
At just 20, he is running the show, not just for his country, but the biggest club side in the world, Real Madrid.
You would think there would be some element of pressure hitting the nerve system of Bellingham, but he just isn’t showing an ounce of it.
At the rate the all-action midfielder is going, there is every chance that he has the platform and skill set to, one day, lift the Ballon d’Or.
