Brahim Diaz reveals why he COPIED his Real Madrid team-mate Jude Bellingham by cutting holes in his socks... with the England star having a practical reason as to why he does so

Real Madrid star Brahim Diaz has revealed that he has copied England international Jude Bellingham by cutting holes in his socks.

The Spaniard returned to Real Madrid in the summer after spending three years on loan at AC Milan.

Upon his return, Bellingham joined Los Blancos from Borussia Dortmund and it appears the pair have struck up a friendship, with Diaz speaking English dating back to his time at Man City.

Diaz has since revealed that he has taken inspiration from his new team-mate as he has copied Bellingham by cutting holes in his socks.
