Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham reveals 'little message' he received from Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho ahead of Champions League final

The England midfielder claimed that he has not spoken to any of his former colleagues at Dortmund after Los Blancos beat Bayern Munich to reach the Champions League final. However, Bellingham revealed that he received a short message from compatriot Jadon Sancho.

Sancho and Bellingham played together for one season in Germany before the winger made his high-profile transfer to Manchester United in 2021. Together they won the DFB Pokal in the 2020/21 season. The English stars are now set to face each other in their homeland as the Bundesliga giants face the reigning Spanish champions at Wembley.

Speaking on Real Madrid's media channel, Bellingham said, "Not been speaking with any of them this week. When we first went through I got a little message from Jadon. So I spoke with Sancho. Just saying: ‘I’ll see you there’ and all those kinds of things. Jadon’s always been someone who’s taken me under his wing when I first arrived at Dortmund. He’s a really good guy. He’s helped me a lot."

After winning the Spanish Super Cup and La Liga title in his maiden season in Spain, the 20-year-old will now aim to win his first-ever Champions League medal on June 1.
