Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has said he didn't immediately love football.
"I didn't love football at first. It's strange because now I'd go mad if football was taken away from me. Went to practice and picked grass and flowers. Picked little bunches of daisies for my mum.
My parents never pushed me. My dad kept taking me out, but said I could play hide and seek or pick flowers if I wanted to. I had freedom as a child, my parents never forced me to do anything if I behaved well and thought of others," L'Equipe quoted Bellingham as saying.
