For many, Michael Jordan is considered the greatest sportsman of all time - including by Jude Bellingham himself.
The American athlete transcended basketball to become a global icon and a Hollywood star while still winning NBA championships for the Chicago Bulls.
MJ also became the greatest trainers salesman in history, with Air Jordan shoes breaking through the $5billion (£4.4bn) mark for the first time last year - 20 years after he retired.
Enter Jude Bellingham, a young black icon, also from humble beginnings, who has taken the world of his chosen sport by storm.
