Borussia Dortmund star talks about Jude Bellingham; heaps praise on Luka Modric | OneFootball

Jobe Bellingham’s move to Borussia Dortmund this summer from Sunderland has raised many eyebrows.

As the younger brother of Jude Bellingham, many expecting Jobe to follow on the footsteps of the Real Madrid midfielder.

However, Jobe is here to create his own legacy at Borussia Dortmund and in a recent interview, the midfielder joked that he doesn’t watch his brother play often.

Speaking to Dortmund ambassador Patrick Owomoyela, Jobe was asked about watching his brother in action.

In response, the young midfielder said, “No, no. I don’t watch him, I see enough of him.”

Jobe’s reply was rather sarcastic, though it is not completely unnatural to believe that the midfielder doesn’t watch his brother in action too often.

Bellingham on Luka Modric

Jobe, however, has immense respect for another Real Madrid midfielder in the form of Luka Modric.

“I watch so many players, so many midfielders. Earlier I was watching Modric, when I have time I like to watch midfield plays,” he said.

Unfortunately, Modric’s time at Real Madrid will soon come to an end, with the veteran set to leave the club after the end of the FIFA Club World Cup.

Modric is expected to stay in Europe, however, with AC Milan likely to be his next destination.

As for Jobe Bellingham, he will be focusing on Borussia Dortmund’s upcoming Club World Cup game.

The Black and Yellows, having secured seven points in group stage, will face Monterrey in the Round of 16 stage. One would expect Bellingham to play a key role in this encounter.
