Roommates at schoolboy level, rivals in Champions League now: the story of Jude Bellingham's and Jamal Musiala's friendship

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich young stars Jude Bellingham and Jamal Musiala, both born in 2003, share a close friendship and early football experiences. Two talented attacking midfielders played together for England's U15, U17, and U21 national teams and even shared a room in the youth teams.

After Musiala left England to play in Germany, his birth country, these two still remeined close friends.

Last year, Jude was just a few minutes away from clinching his first ever league title with Borussia Dortmund, but his absence in Dortmund's final match of the season and Musiala's late winner for Bayern in the other game dashed his hopes of winning the Bundesliga.

This didn't impact their friendship, though - in October last year, Musiala congratulated Bellingham on winning the Kopa Trophy with a heartfelt speech.
