Jude Bellingham and his Real Madrid teammates were gifted BMWs.
Jude Bellingham has been gifted a BMW as part of Real Madrid’s partnership with the German car manufacturer – but he must follow a strict car rule.
Bellingham opted for a black BMW XM – the same model as teammates Kylian Mbappe and Luka Modric.
The star midfielder was pictured next to his new BMW, complete with a personalised registration plate.
It costs as much as £175,000, with Vinicius Jr choosing a BMW i7 M70 xDrive, which reaches up to 149 miles per hour and goes for around £164,000.

22 players and Carlo Ancelotti all received free vehicles as Real squad and coaching staff reap the rewards of the partnership, which is now in their third year.
Los Blancos’ sponsorship with the car manufacturer is similar to Bayern Munich’s long-term partnership with Audi, with Bellingham’s England colleague Harry Kane having to follow a strict rule at the Bundesliga club.
Like Kane, Bellingham, along with the rest of the squad, is expected to drive to and from the club’s training base in his BMW vehicle as well as matches and other club-related activities.

“It also has a firm commitment to sustainability, solidarity, diversity and a winning spirit. This makes the club the perfect partner to address the challenges of the present and the future.”
Bellingham enjoyed a stunning debut campaign at the club following his big-money transfer from Borussia Dortmund.
He scored an impressive 23 goals across all competitions, helping his side to La Liga and Champions League triumphs.
The 21-year-old has yet to get off the mark this season, having played five games in all competitions.
