Jude Bellingham Reaches 40 Caps for England – Closing in on Beckham's Record

Jude Bellingham

At just 20 years old, Jude Bellingham continues to solidify his place as a key figure in the England national team, marking his 40th senior international appearance during the UEFA Nations League fixture against Ireland. Remarkably, all of Bellingham’s caps have come while playing for non-British clubs—a testament to his rapid rise on the global stage.

Chasing Beckham’s Record

Bellingham’s 40 caps are split between his time at Borussia Dortmund (24 appearances) and his current spell with Real Madrid (16 appearances). This makes him the second-most capped England player representing non-British clubs, behind only the iconic David Beckham, who earned 55 of his 115 caps while playing for Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan, and Paris Saint-Germain.

An International Phenomenon

Bellingham debuted for the Three Lions in November 2020 at just 17 years old, quickly establishing himself as one of England’s most reliable midfielders. Since then, he has played pivotal roles in major tournaments, including UEFA Euro 2020 and the 2022 FIFA World Cup, where his composure and creativity drew praise from fans and pundits alike.
