Reporters say that the England international, who has had a great start to life in Spain, has been chosen the Golden Boy, which means that he is the best football player in the world under 21 years old. Bellingham also won the Kopa Trophy, which named him the world’s best U21 player. This time, the award was given by France Football along with the Ballon d’Or.
Wayne Rooney, Lionel Messi, and other players have won the award in the past. The current holder is Barcelona’s Gavi. This year, Bellingham was up against players like Rasmus Hojlund of Manchester United, Jamal Musiala of Bayern Munich, and Lamine Yamal of Barcelona. But he won by a huge margin, getting an amazing 97% of the votes. When Kylian Mbappe won the award in 2017, he got the same amount.
