JAKARTA - Real Madrid fans have given a new nickname for Jude Bellingham after the magical moment he made in the match against Girona, Saturday, September 30, in the Spanish La Liga continuation.

Bellingham once again proved his greatness in the 17th minute. He received the ball on the left side of the field and provided a perfect pass by foot to Joselu who scored Madrid's first goal.

Real Madrid fans were impressed by Bellingham's expertise and gave him the nickname 'Luka'. The name was taken from Madrid veteran Luka Modric.

The reason is, Bellingham's action in the match reminded fans of Modric, who recently sat on the bench more.

One fan wrote, "Jude Luka Bellingham."

Another added, "Bellingham's wound."

A third fan wrote only, "Jude Bellingham with a trivela assist like Luka Modriela..."

And there were also those who commented, "Bellingham learned well from Modric."

The out-of-leg feed that Modric has often done has been his trademark in recent years. He created an extraordinary pass that saw Rodryo score against Chelsea in the 2022 Champions League.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid beat Girona with a score of 3-0 with Bellingham perfecting his team's win with a clever volley. This was the seventh goal the player brought in from Borussia Dortmund in eight matches.
