First Jude Bellingham scout report hinted at world beater with ‘enormous feet’

Jude Bellingham's first scouting report noted his 'long legs and enormous feet' while tipping him to become a world beater.

The Real Madrid and England sensation broke into the Birmingham City first-team at the age of 16 years, one month and eight days under Pep Clotet in the Carabao Cup back in 2019, 19 days before he made his Championship debut.

Plenty of eyes were on the starlet for their trip to take on Portsmouth at Fratton Park – and he came away with rave reviews despite the visitors slipping to a 3-0 defeat.

Shared by the Daily Mail, Bellingham's first scouting report in senior football talked up his physical and mental attributes.

As well as noting his athleticism, long legs and enormous feet while standing at 6ft 1in, his movement was called natural and graceful in the middle of the park.

Bellingham's runs off the ball and ability to keep hold of possession were a sign of things to come – as well as his possible over commitment into tackles which he swiftly toned down.

The report ended by saying that he would be in the Birmginham first-team before his 18th birthday – when it fact he would've already joined Borussia Dortmund for an initial £25million.

The sensation scored 24 goals across his 132 appearances while winning the DFB Pokal and coming 90 minutes away from Bundesliga glory before joining Real Madrid for an initial £88.5million last summer.

He has since scored 10 goals across 10 games and gone from strength to strength for England, being named as man of the match in the win over Italy that secured Euro 2024 qualification.

Speaking on Channel 4 after the game, the 20-year-old said: "The pressure that comes with a transfer like that the fact is that I have to deliver.
