Jude Bellingham has etched his name into Real Madrid history, becoming the first English footballer to reach 50 goals for the Spanish giants. The midfielder achieved this milestone during the 11th round of La Liga in a match against Racing Santander.
Bellingham found the net in the 21st minute, doubling his team's lead. This goal marked his 50th strike in 154 appearances across all competitions for Madrid. According to Opta, he also became the 50th player in the club's history to reach at least 50 goals.
This achievement is significant as it follows a seven-match goal drought for the midfielder. The goal against Racing is his fourth in the current Spanish league campaign.
Bellingham joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2023 and has since established himself as a central figure for the club, consistently contributing to the team's offensive efforts.
