Seeing how Jobe Bellingham’s job stacks up against Jude Bellingham’s at age 19
Jobe Bellingham turns 19 today. How does his work history compare to that of his brother Jude Bellingham, who is the same age? We’ve looked at the numbers.
Jude is having a great season with Real Madrid in La Liga right now, but Jobe is still doing great for Sunderland and is seen as one of the best talents in the EFL.
Jobe is also an advanced midfielder, like Jude. However, under new boss Regis Le Bris, he has been playing a little deeper this season.
He sees the goal very well and, like his brother, plays like he’s much older than he is. He made a good impression with Birmingham and then moved to Sunderland in 2023 in a deal worth about £3 million.
This was the 19-year-old’s first season at Stadium of Light, and he scored seven goals for the Black Cats from middle.
Fan and expert alike will always compare the two of them because they are such skilled brothers, but Jude doesn’t want people to compare them in an unfair way.
Because we care so much about each other, Jude said on his YouTube channel, “People will use him to poke fun at me and vice versa. We’re almost like each other’s biggest fans but also the biggest targets for each other.”
“He has to deal with more than I did when I was his age, and he does it with such style.” He wants to try to leave his own mark and follow his own way.
“To be honest, I only care about him being happy at the end of the day.” I care more about his happiness than my own.
At club level, Jude has already won some of the biggest awards, but he recently said that his biggest dream is to play for England with his brother.
Jude said, “To play with my brother for England would be the biggest dream of my life because we’re the same age and have played together for so long, in the street and on patches of grass.”
“Those would mean more to me than any trophies, especially if we could do it regularly and win things together at a big tournament.”
