Senior football correspondent Sami Mokbel charts Jude Bellingham's remarkable resurgence with England at the World Cup.

A World Cup body of work that, even by the Real Madrid midfielder's lofty standards, has been as mesmerising as we've seen in an England shirt in recent major tournaments. It seems ludicrous now to think that there was even a debate as to whether Bellingham would be in England's World Cup team at all. Bellingham has emerged as one of the stars of England's run to the World Cup quarter-finals - he's arguably been one of the best players of the tournament. Four goals plus an excellent assist for Harry Kane's goal in the 2-0 win over Panama has had England's supporters serenading the 23-year-old here in the USA. Of course, he is used to the adulation. It is no surprise that Bellingham finds himself in the position he does today - his route to the top was predicted by those in the game when he burst on to the scene in 2019. Bellingham made his debut for hometown club Birmingham City aged 16 years and 38 days in August 2019. He became the Blues' youngest ever player, breaking club legend Trevor Francis' record set in 1970. A Premier League scouting report from that game suggests the midfielder's talent was quickly apparent, acknowledging his "great athleticism, long legs, graceful running and work-rate".
