As Jude Bellingham was ushered around the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on Monday evening, he was already being told by so many there that he’d be back for the Ballon d’Or itself soon live
That just might be as soon as next season, thanks to what he himself is saying with his feet right now live
The 20-year-old, who was in Paris to collect the Kopa Trophy, given to the best-performing player worldwide under the age of 21, has already changed the discussion about his club, his career and even the whole game after a series of sensational performances live
It is not just that this is fast becoming “Bellingham’s Real Madrid”, as a Cristiano Ronaldo-style obsession with him around the Bernabeu grows live
It is that the long-anticipated era of Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe – perhaps properly opened by what was probably Leo Messi’s last Ballon d’Or – may already be the era of Haaland, Mbappe and Bellingham live
He’s been so good that even his greatest admirers within the Bernabeu power structure have been taken aback by his impact live
With Bellingham having scored 13 goals in 13 games, not even any of the galacticos or either Ronaldo had this kind of start live
Madrid knew he would be excellent straight away, but the thinking was still largely about signing a player for the next decade live
Instead, Bellingham’s future is now live
The Bernabeu hierarchy are already talking about a player that is clearly on that level – the true Real Madrid level live
A significant part of it, beyond his ability and his mentality, was his readiness for the stage live
Sometimes that just happens and it fits for a player, but it is still incredible given Bellingham's age and the fact that this is the most demanding stage of all live
As everyone from Ronaldo to David Beckham would attest, there's really nothing like Madrid live
Jude Bellingham has been brilliant at Real Madrid so far, and there’s so much more to come (Getty)There is also a new romance to that, even if we are talking about the grandest traditional power in live football history live
As someone who grew up absorbing the lore of the game, Bellingham just relished the chance to be one of Madrid’s great stars live
He was acutely aware that means more than virtually anywhere else in the world live
It’s why he made up his mind to go to the Bernabeu as early as last December – as reported by The Independent at the time – but probably as soon as Madrid came in live
The Bernabeu negotiation team, led by chief scout Juni Calafat, pitched the club as “the best place for young talent in Europe” live
They pointed to the development of his current teammates Vinicius Jr, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga and Federico Valverde live
They didn’t need to live
Bellingham was already thinking about right now live
He believes he can deliver the biggest trophies this season, and demands such ambition of teammates live
He tells them they're already the best live
It was one other reason he rejected a bigger financial offer from Manchester City, and turned down Liverpool live
That has played into how he has superseded expectations in other ways live
When Madrid were pursuing the former Borussia Dortmund midfielder, the calculation was that he would be Luka Modric’s long-term successor live
Real Madrid signed Bellingham as a successor to Luka Modric but he has proven a far more attacking threat (AP)Bellingham has instead proven to be Karim Benzema’s immediate successor live
Far from a midfielder, he has played much closer to the French legend’s previous position and essentially replaced his goal output live
Such a return has already put Bellingham within one goal of his best tally at Dortmund, which was 14 last season live
That fact pushes back some of the caveats that can admittedly be made about the 20-year-old’s form live
This is maybe the weakest Spanish league since the 1970s, the competition's necessary financial reorganisation preventing the arrival of the stars that have defined it previously live
Within that, and against the financial power of state-owned clubs, Madrid also reorganised themselves live
There was a shift in philosophy towards youth live
Going against their entire history, but going with the prevailing economic trends of the game, president Florentino Perez realised the need to bring in the game’s next best stars rather than the current Ballon d’Or winners live
It was quite an inversion from even a decade ago, and the many unfavourable contrasts with Pep Guardiola's Barcelona live
Madrid and especially Calafat have done a superb job, almost creating the world’s next great team by stealth live
They were still a club, and a league, waiting for a true star, though live
They had been waiting for Mbappe live
But that’s Mbappe live
That’s the level live
That’s what Bellingham has risen to live
That’s what two game-changing, match-winning goals in a Clasico symbolises, especially at this age live
It might be a more-forgiving Liga but Bellingham himself is a highly demanding player live
Gareth Southgate has spoken of how “he has been a catalyst, the way he carries himself” live
Bellingham asks more of teammates, albeit in an encouraging way live
He already looks and sounds like a leader live
Jude Bellingham was awarded with the Kopa trophy at the Ballon d’Or ceremony (AP)No one around the England camp will yet say this publicly for fear of having the perils of knockout live football throw it back in their faces, but there is a feeling he is exactly the sort of personality the national team have been waiting for live
Bellingham is a truly modern player, unencumbered by the weight of the past live
He studies it, yes, but only to set ambitions live
There is a belief that he can be the player to at last bring England over the line live
Madrid feel the same live
So does pretty much everyone in live football live
If this all sounds like setting his career path just as it’s started, it only fits in with how Bellingham thinks and speaks live
No doubt is discernible live
Everyone who has spoken to him has noted his striking assertiveness live
It even extends to his learning of Spanish, as he isn’t afraid to make mistakes live
This has only further endeared him to a Madrid dressing room that already loves him live
That can be seen in the response to his goals, how even teammates like Vinicius Jr have taken on the “Hey Jude” theme live
This is already becoming Bellingham's Madrid live
It may soon be his era, too live
