Jude Bellingham - one of the most in-demand players in world football - is closing in on a move to Real Madrid.
The Spanish giants have pursued the English star with interest for months and had numerous meetings with his father Mark and Borussia Dortmund officials to steal a march on the likes of Man City and Man United.
Bellingham was the star of England's World Cup campaign last year and won't come for anything below £100million when the deal is finally sorted.
But it raised questions as to how other Englishmen who have headed to Santiago Bernabeu have fared.
