The Dutch Under 21 national squad decided to pay a surprise visit to the Princess Maxima Center for Pediatric Oncology in Utrecht. During his visit, Utrecht forward Noah Ohio spoke to a young cancer patient, who disclosed that he was a big Bellingham fan. Ohio got in touch with Bellingham to make the young fan's day. The Real Madrid player brightened the fan's day by picking up the phone and chatting with the young supporter.
Before Bellingham transferred to the Dutch youth system, Ohio and Bellingham were teammates on the England U16 squad. While Bellingham has just become a huge star for both Real Madrid and England, Ohio now plays for Utrecht in the Eredivisie.

Jude Bellingham, who scored his previous five goals as either winners or equalizers, has established himself as an important member of the England team. Bellingham has four goals for England in 2024. His outstanding record included an 87' equalizer against Greece, a dramatic 90+5' equalizer against Belgium, a 13' winner against Serbia, and another late 90+5' equalizer against Slovakia.
England lost to Greece
Bellingham's performance is still impressive, but as they prepare for their next games, they must regroup and take what went wrong from this setback. The superstar will now be in action on Sunday, October 13, when Lee Carsley's England squad plays Finland in an attempt to bounce back from their unexpected loss to Greece on Thursday.
Meanwhile, after the defeat to Greece Lee Carsley's job is under fire as England FA will searching other options who can be a proper replacement for Gareth Southgate. Thomas Tuchel is currently leading the race for the position after his name was linked with Manchester United. The team owners have shown faith in Erik Ten Hag and are giving him a chance after some poor performances
