Rio Ferdinand has claimed Jude Bellingham has the ability and mentality required to win the Ballon d'Or in the future, adding that the Real Madrid star is already ahead of fellow England midfield legends at the same age.
Bellingham has enjoyed a stunning start to the season after completing a £113m move from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid in June.
The 20-year-old has scored five goals in his opening four matches for the Spanish giants to stand at the top of La Liga's goalscoring charts.
