Jude Bellingham, Jude’s younger brother, signed for Sunderland the same day his brother moved to Real Madrid for £88.5m.
After signing for Real Madrid for £88.5m earlier this month, you might think Jude Bellingham would enjoy tapas in the Spanish capital.
That was not the case, however, after the 19-year-old England star was seen eating Italian food at Romano’s in Cleadon near Sunderland on Friday night.
The former Borussia Dortmund and Birmingham City midfielder was in town with his brother Jobe, 17, who Sunderland signed on the same day for an undisclosed fee for next season’s Championship campaign.
They previously went on holiday in the south of France earlier this week. At Romano’s, the brothers took a photo with some customers after they finished their meal.
Janie Robertshaw was celebrating her daughter Elise’s 10th birthday, and the Bellinghams were forced to take a picture with her and dad Chris. Janie said: ‘Everyone waited until they were done eating and both were very polite and happy to welcome anyone who asked for a photo.
