I can’t remember any great goal or assist that he made that was impactful enough to be remembered at a club like R Madrid
I understand he had an amazing World Cup which prob got him the move and it’s hard for players to turn down R Madrid but I just wonder if in hindsight players like him, Hazard, Jovic etc…… realise that sometimes the grass isn’t always greener on the other side and a move like that hurts your legacy and standing in the game as your demoted to the bench
However looking at Jude Bellingham, Benzema, C Ronaldo when u make it good at the big clubs it’s so rewarding, so I guess it depends on the player and the manager/s that it is at the club at the time
Ronaldo was already at a big club (back then) before going to Real.
Benzema was arguably in a big club in France and was a multiple league winner before going to Madrid. So arguably from a big club too.
Those two had already made it big. Hazard had probably made it as big as he was going to at Chelsea.
Bellingham is the outlier. Being able to perform at a big club the way he is. That’s something special. For his sake, I’m glad he didn’t go to City. Hoping he beats Bale’s record as the most successful British footballer in time either there, or anywhere else.
