Steve McManaman claims Jude Bellingham will be 'treated like the King' of Madrid if he signs for the LaLiga giants ahead of their Champions League rivals Manchester City

Jude Bellingham will be treated like the King of Madrid IF he signs for the Spanish side ahead of their Champions League rivals.

Former England international Steve McManaman played for both clubs and knows how that feels having switched to La Liga from Liverpool in his prime.

And although he rates City favourites to emerge as finalists after his two former sides start their semi-final tie this week, he feels the Spanish side will always have an attraction ahead of the English elite.

'Nothing is going to happen until the summer – if at all – but if Jude does happen to sign for Madrid he will be treated like a king,' McManaman explained.
