Crystal Palace are paying special attention to Jobe Bellingham, who could move in January.
The winter transfer market has set its sights on a player who will become a prominent figure in the coming years. Jobe Bellingham, the younger brother of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham, has emerged as the top target for Crystal Palace, a Premier League club with a long-standing interest in the young footballer.
According to British media outlet talkSPORT, Crystal Palace are reportedly analyzing the potential signing of Jobe, who currently plays as an attacking midfielder for Sunderland.
Is Jobe Bellingham comparable to Jude on the field?
At just 19 years old, the youngest Bellingham has already earned a call-up to the England Under-21 squad and established himself as a key player in the second tier of English football. He played in almost 90% of Sunderland's matches, showing his consistency and importance to the team.
Physically, Jobe shares similarities with his older brother Jude, who has an impressive presence on the field. Although slightly taller, Jobe's role in Sunderland's attack reflects Jude's ability to create scoring opportunities, although Jobe operates in a slightly deeper position rather than focusing solely on the front line.
This season, Jobe has played in 23 of Sunderland's 26 games, contributing four goals and three assists. He has also shown his tenacity with one red card and five yellow cards. He is a predominantly right-footed player and his current market value is estimated at around €18 million.
