English midfielder, Jude Bellingham has revealed Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the 2022 UCL final was 'a huge factor' to move to the Los Blancos.

The 19-year-old has signed a six-year deal.
"I was at the final when Madrid beat Liverpool, that was a huge factor in my decision to join Real," the midfielder said at his unveiling.
Vinicius Jr. scored the only goal in that game from a Fede Valverde cross in the second half.
Real Madrid president, Florentino PĂ©rez described Bellingham as 'one of the best players in the world'.
"One of the best players in the world has come to Real Madrid, he decided that his story had to lead him to the most prestigious club in world football."
