Jude Bellingham radiates pride as his brother Jobe graces the field for Sunderland at Hull’s MKM Stadium on Boxing Day, marking a momentous occasion in their family’s football legacy. ⚽🌟
On Boxing Day, Jude Bellingham was seen in the stands at Hull City’s MKM Stadium, watching his younger brother Jobe play for Sunderland in the Championship.
The England midfielder, who has been magnificent since joining Real Madrid for £113 million in the summer, witnessed Jobe and Sunderland lose 3-0 to Coventry on Saturday.
After picking up two crucial victories earlier in the month against Leeds and West Brom, Sunderland has since faltered, losing to Bristol City before suffering a heartbreaking loss to Coventry.
Jude spoke with supporters outside the stadium before heading to the MKM Stadium on Boxing Day to watch his brother.
Before the game began, he was seen grinning and posing for pictures with supporters from Hull and Sunderland. Jobe was included in the starting lineup.
Before long, Jude was watching his 18-year-old brother play on the pitch from the seats, grinning brightly and wearing a grey coat and red and white scarf.
Jobe, who left Birmingham City to join Sunderland earlier this summer, has had a fantastic first season. He has appeared in all but one of their Championship games while contributing four goals and an assist.
Jobe began the game on the bench against Bristol City and then made his way back into the starting lineup during the loss to Coventry, as Sunderland sought to manage the young player’s playing time over the hectic holiday season.
Jude contributed to Real Madrid’s dramatic victory over Deportivo Alaves last week, which kept the Spanish powerhouses tied for first place in La Liga with Girona.
Mail Sport revealed this week how Mark and Denise, the brothers’ parents, have been dividing their time to support the two superstars in various nations.
