In a surprise move, Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has decided to expand his career beyond football by entering the world of cricket. According to Mundo Deportivo, Bellingham has bought a small stake in the Birmingham Phoenix team, which is taking part in the “Hundred” tournament in England.
Warwickshire County Cricket Club, the team's co-owner, has confirmed that the England midfielder will own around 1.2% of the shares. His investment will focus mainly on community projects and social initiatives for young people.
The club's ownership structure remains unchanged in the main: Warwickshire County Club holds 50.4% of the shares, while Knighthead Capital Management owns 48.4%.
Bellingham, 22, explained his motivation for this new step: "I feel like I owe something to the city. I was lucky enough to grow up with the opportunity to play cricket and football, but not all kids have those opportunities. If I can contribute to helping them and opening up those avenues, it's something that's really important to me."
