England midfielder Jude Bellingham has completed his move to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund by signing a six-year deal. Bellingham posed with the No. 5 shirt once worn by soccer star Zinedine Zidane before Madrid’s packed trophy case after he signed the contract alongside club president Florentino Pérez.
