Sports Personality contender Bellingham's year in photos

Jude Bellingham is one of six contenders for the 2024 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award.

Here BBC Sport takes a look back at the Real Madrid and England footballer's year in five photos.

Bellingham scored the winning goal in April's El Clasico as Real Madrid beat Barcelona 3-2. That goal made him Real's all-time top English goalscorer in just his first season at the club. He finished the 2023-24 campaign with 23 goals in all competitions.

Bellingham was named La Liga player of the season as Real Madrid won the title, having lost just one game. With his 19 league goals - more than any of his team-mates - Bellingham was joint third on La Liga's top scorers' list.

Real Madrid beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley in June to win the Champions League, with Bellingham providing the assist for Vinicius Jr to score Real's second. Bellingham was named Champions League young player of the season.

Less than a month later, Bellingham was England's saviour against Slovakia when, with the Three Lions just seconds away from an embarrassing Euro 2024 last-16 exit, he produced a moment of genius. Bellingham's stunning overhead kick took the game to extra time, when Harry Kane scored a first-minute penalty to secure a 2-1 win for England.

Bellingham finished third in the Ballon d'Or voting, behind Manchester City's Rodri and his Real Madrid team-mate Vinicius Jr. Bellingham's placing was the highest an English player has finished since Frank Lampard's second place in 2005.
