Jude Bellingham-mania in Madrid has reached fever pitch - the star has hired a minder to keep adoring fans at bay. And Bellingham’s new aide is even keeping the soccer ace company when he fancies a bite to eat on the packed streets of the Spanish capital. The £300,000-a-week star has been seen with the minder in Madrid, including while seeing the Spanish capital's sights while travelling in a tuk-tuk.

Bellingham , 21, was also spotted with the bearded man, who is believed to be English, while eating at popular tapas restaurant La Buha La Latina. Manager Guy Nasser, 50, told the Mirror : "He was with his mum and a security guy, who was looking round to make sure everything was safe. "The man was aged about 45 and was English.



He was wearing relaxed clothes - slacks and a t-shirt and was tall and in good shape." Bellingham grew up in Stourbridge, west Midlands, where he was brought up by his parents Mark and Denise, alongside his younger brother Jobe , who plays for Sunderland . He has become one of world football's biggest names since signing for Real Madrid from German side Borussia Dortmund in June last year.

And he is now recognised everywhere he goes in Madrid, where he lives in the city's exclusive La Finca neighbourhood, which is known as Madrid's Beverly Hills. Meanwhile, restaurant manager Guy, who is originally from Cameroon, central Africa, is impressed by how quickly Bellingham has picked up the local lingo. He said: "I spoke to him in Spanish.

His Spanish is very good for the short time he has been here. He was saying please and thank you a lot. His accent sounds like he is English when he is speaking in Spanish.

" He added: "I don't know how they arrived, but they left on a tuk-tuk moto tour. The seats at the back are open air. "He had tortilla and croquettes.

We spoke about the food and he said what a lovely restaurant and place it is. He said he loved it and wanted to come back. He's a lovely man and I'd love to see him back here.

He was really kind, a smashing person." Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content. We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
