Joselu: From being relegated twice to La Liga winner and Champions League finalist
Despite being brought in as just a squad player, Joselu has shown that he is an integral and important part of Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid machine, and they have another UCL final to win.
Bellingham outshines Messi, Ronaldo
At just 20, Bellingham's UCL run is better than Lionel Messi, and Cristiano Ronaldo at the same age.

When Ronaldo was 20, Manchester United had just been kicked out of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, and his first semi-final appearance came in 2007, before consecutive final appearances and a first triumph in 2008.
As for Lionel Messi, the legendary Argentine was injured in 2006 when Barcelona won the competition, missing out on the quarter-final, semis, and eventual final against Arsenal.
Messi's first taste of the semi-finals came in 2008, at 21, and he played in a Champions League final one year later.
Jude Bellingham leading Real Madrid to a Champions League final at 20 years old is a remarkable achievement that must be applauded.
