1. He's young
Real Madrid are already planing for the future by showing an interest in Bellingham.
Bellingham is just 18, but already showing his quality and talent. He's shown no signs of homesickness after leaving England, which means adapting to Spain will not be a problem.
2. Style of play
Bellingham is a fast player with the ability to carry the ball and find pockets of space, particularly in the final third.
Speed and precision are key requirements to be a Real Madrid player nowadays, and Bellingham posses that quality.
3. Versatility
Bellingham has proven he can play in multiple positions. He's excellent as a central midfielder and as a defensive midfielder.
He can also play on the right or left side of midfield.
What's more? He scores and creates goals from any position he plays. So far he's scored 6 goals and registered 13 assists for Dortmund this season.
4. His leadership qualities
Surprising for his age, Bellingham is already a squad leader at Dortmund.
"I won't let my teammates slack off in the return leg," he said after Dortmund lost 4-2 to Rangers. Surprising comments from one of the youngest players in the team.
