Before Bellingham scored in Madrid's 5-0 rout of Alaves on Tuesday night, his father Mark Bellingham and brother and Sunderland star Jobe were seen in the stands ahead of kick-off. It was clear all parties were happy to see one another in the iconic ground, with the trio all smiles.

Jude's dad can be seen with Jobe high up in Santiago Bernabeu while the Madrid star was on the pitch. The camera shows Mark copying the 20-year-old's celebration, something the England international found amusing.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bellingham has been a revelation for Madrid this season. Following his £88 million ($111m) move from Borussia Dortmund last summer, he has scored 23 goals and bagged 12 assists in all competitions. The former Birmingham City star has helped them to La Liga success and now just one game away from lifting the Champions League for a record-extending 15th time. And much of this would not be possible without the support of his family, celebrations and all.
