In a new documentary on his YouTube channel, Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has revealed that manager Carlo Ancelotti once jokingly threatened to replace him with his younger brother Jobe.

The comment came after the younger Bellingham sibling scored a brace for his new club Sunderland last August in a 2-1 win against Rotherham.

“I’ll never forget, as we’re coming out, Ancelotti goes to me, ‘we’ve bought the wrong one’,” says Bellingham.

The 21-year-old claims that the Italian manager told him that he was planning to bring his younger sibling in to play in his position.

“Finally, he just gave me a little smile and my heart dropped. I’m like, ‘no pressure for today’,” Bellingham remembers.

The pressure clearly didn’t get to the elder sibling either way, because he bagged a brace of his own in a 3-1 win against Almeria.

The first episode of Bellingham’s new documentary series dropped on the player’s YouTube channel on Thursday.

It charts his high-profile £88.5m move from Borussia Dortmund to Madrid, as well as the stand-out season that followed, which Bellingham ended as the club’s top goalscorer as they won La Liga, the Spanish Super Cup and the Champions League.
