Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has advised Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham to remain focused amid media backlash.
Recall that Bellingham has been the subject of intense scrutiny after he was accused of reacting angrily to being substituted during England’s win over Albania.
In a chat with Tribalfootball, Joshua launched a passionate defence of Bellingham, amid recent criticism and slander from the English media.

“Talk to me… What’s happened with Jude? Why (Shouldn’t he be included in England squad)?,” he said.
“But why? I’m not exactly sure what’s going on with the situation but everyone has their own personality. If he doesn’t want to talk then that’s up to it, if he wants to talk, if he doesn’t, I don’t understand exactly what’s going on, I don’t follow soccer, I follow the fight game.
“What like? Negative? The main thing for him to focus on is getting on that pitch and representing his country and doing a good job.
“It doesn’t matter what you say, that’s what we’ve got to focus on, he’s probably just tunnel vision which most people don’t understand what it takes to be in Jude Bellingham’s position.”
