Ronaldo's Euro 2024 glory is uncertain as Bellingham's rise evades England's chances, says Capello

In a surprising turn of events, football legend Fabio Capello has expressed doubts about Cristiano Ronaldo’s ability to shine at the upcoming Euro 2024 tournament. The former Real Madrid boss has instead named England as the favourites to lift the coveted trophy, thanks to the remarkable rise of Jude Bellingham.

The Euro 2024 bid for continental glory is set to commence on June 14th in Germany, with defending champions Italy aiming to retain the crown they won at Wembley Stadium in 2021. While the tournament promises to showcase a host of superstar performers, all eyes will be on the evergreen Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo, who continues to defy age at 39.

Ronaldo’s Move to Saudi Arabia: A Cause for Concern?

Despite Ronaldo’s impressive goal-scoring exploits in the Saudi Pro League this season, where he has surpassed the 40-goal mark once again, Capello has raised concerns about the impact of his “year in Arabia” on his performance at the Euros.

“There are two players who make the difference: Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe. And we will have to see how the year in Arabia has been for Cristiano,” Capello stated, highlighting the importance of Bellingham and Mbappe’s form.

Bellingham’s Meteoric Rise: England’s Ace in the Hole

Capello, who led England to the 2010 World Cup, believes that the Three Lions are the favourites to claim European glory, thanks largely to the sensational form of Jude Bellingham. The 20-year-old midfielder has been a revelation in his debut season at Real Madrid, showcasing his immense talent and scoring crucial goals, including a dramatic winner in the recent Clasico clash against Barcelona.

“It is a surprise that an Englishman has triumphed so soon in La Liga,” Capello remarked, marvelling at Bellingham’s rapid rise to prominence in one of the world’s most competitive leagues.

Bellingham’s stellar performances have not gone unnoticed, and he is expected to be joined by French superstar Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid in the upcoming summer transfer window. Mbappe’s arrival could further bolster the Spanish giants’ already formidable squad and potentially strengthen England’s chances at Euro 2024.

A Tournament of Superstars

While Ronaldo’s form and Bellingham’s meteoric rise have grabbed headlines, the Euro 2024 tournament promises to be a showcase of footballing talent from around the continent. With several other superstars expected to grace the pitches in Germany, fans can anticipate an enthralling battle for supremacy.

As the countdown to the Euros begins, all eyes will be on Ronaldo to see if he can defy the doubters and cement his legacy with another remarkable performance on the grandest stage. However, the spotlight will also shine brightly on Bellingham and the England squad, who could potentially write a new chapter in their nation’s footballing history.
