Yeah I rejected Pep Guardiola offer before Real Madrid signed me, I can’t be on the bench and waste my career like Kelvin Phillips’ ‘Fantastic’ £220,000-a-week player directly rejected Pep Guardiola, didn’t want to join Manchester City

The England international midfielder is currently doing admirably for Los Blancos.

This season, the 20-year-old has eight goals and two assists in eight La Liga matches for Real Madrid.

Bellingham has two goals and one assist in two UEFA Champions League appearances for Carlo Ancelotti’s team this season.

Pep Guardiola attempted to persuade Jude Bellingham to join Manchester City.
If Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola had his way, Bellingham would have arrived at the Etihad Stadium during the summer transfer window.

According to Cadena SER, City attempted to persuade the England international to relocate to Manchester.

Guardiola had an almost three-hour telephone conversation with Bellingham.

The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager shared his ideas for the kid.

However, Bellingham, according to the Spanish news agency, turned down Guardiola’s advances.

The midfielder had previously chosen to join Real Madrid from Dortmund, and he chose to continue with his original option.

Bellingham eventually finished his relocation to Madrid.

I feel the 20-year-old, who Guardiola praised as “a fantastic player” when he was a teenager, would have been a great addition for City.

Bellingham is already a world-class player, and he would have made City’s midfield even more formidable than it is presently.

Who knows, maybe Bellingham may wind up at Manchester City in the following years.

You never know what might happen.
