However, statistics from their initial ten La Liga matches indicate that Bellingham might outshine his predecessor.

In a dramatic turn of events at Barca, the 20-year-old Bellingham netted both goals – an impressive 25-yard screamer and a last-minute winner – enabling Real Madrid to come from behind and secure a 2-1 victory.

Following his friend’s recent heroics, Vinicius Jr. expressed his admiration: “Jude Bellingham is incredible, he always makes a difference and the fans got used to Cristiano Ronaldo and now one more has arrived for us.”

Ronaldo, now 38, joined Real Madrid in 2009 in a then-world record £80 million transfer from Manchester United. By that time, the Portuguese forward, who had turned 24 earlier in the year, had already claimed a Ballon d’Or, won the Champions League, and secured three Premier League titles.

In contrast, Bellingham, at the age of 20, arrived in the Spanish capital after a £115 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund, lacking the extensive list of accolades that Ronaldo had amassed.

However, Bellingham has seamlessly adapted to life at the Bernabeu, possibly even surpassing Ronaldo’s early achievements. Bellingham has scored ten goals in his first ten La Liga games, surpassing Ronaldo’s total of seven.

During his initial ten matches, Ronaldo’s start in Spain was hindered by an ankle injury, and he completed the full 90 minutes in only five of them. In this period, Ronaldo managed just one assist, while Bellingham has already provided two.

Bellingham has exhibited superior efficiency, scoring ten goals from only 24 shots, compared to Ronaldo’s seven from 60. Bellingham has hit the target 17 times, whereas Ronaldo was accurate with 22 of his 60 attempts.

Additionally, Ronaldo averaged a goal every 112 minutes, while Bellingham has an astonishing rate of 86 minutes per goal.

Nonetheless, maintaining this pace to surpass Ronaldo’s legendary record will be an enormous challenge.

CR7 went on to score a staggering 450 goals in 438 appearances for Real Madrid between 2009 and 2018.

During this time, he claimed four Ballons d’Or awards, won the Champions League four times with the club, and earned two La Liga titles and two Copas del Rey.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has set a goal-scoring target for Bellingham this season.

Astonishingly, Bellingham has already surpassed Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane’s best-ever LaLiga season goal tally of nine.

After their recent triumph, Ancelotti stated, “He can easily reach 20-25 goals.”

“We don’t have in mind that he is a scorer or a striker. He is scoring, but we wait for the rest of us to score goals.”

“Bellingham plays like a veteran. He’s got a fantastic attitude. We didn’t want a draw and his equaliser changed the dynamic of the game.”

“From then on we had more strength and more energy and they started to show more weakness; until that moment they had been the better side.”

Luka Modric, Bellingham’s teammate, remarked to DAZN, “He’s a top boy, with an extraordinary talent. I don’t think even he can believe he’s scoring so many goals…”

“I congratulate him and I hope he keeps going, he can’t slow down!”
