Manchester City have long been linked with Jude Bellingham but the England star chose to join Real Madrid in the summer
Sergio Aguero admits he rues the fact that Manchester City weren't able to land Jude Bellingham at any stage in the lead-up to his Real Madrid move - though he conceded that it was the 'way of the transfer market'.
Bellingham was coveted by every team on the continent after an outstanding spell at Borussia Dortmund following his move to Germany from Birmingham City in 2020. But with Real Madrid needing a new 'Galactico' in their midfield thanks to Casemiro's exit - along with Toni Kroos and Luka Modric entering the final stages of their careers, Bellingham was snapped up by the La Liga giants where his performances continue to be exemplary.
Aguero told Stake.com: "Jude's adaptation was downright impressive. Ten games, ten goals, that's the whole story. Even as a young player, the pressure of playing for such an enormous team didn't affect him. That's praiseworthy. "Great teams will always vie for great players. City has managed to get the upper hand in several important occasions, like Haaland. Sometimes, it doesn't go this way, that's the way of the trade market."
