Rio Ferdinand has said that he has “no qualms” in Jude Bellingham being handed the Borussia Dortmund captaincy amid a comparison with both Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard.
The former Birmingham City youngster has sparkled since he swapped St Andrews for the Signal Iduna Park in the summer of 2020. His form this season has arguably been the best of his career and he has already notched eight goals in all competitions; displays that have seen him bestowed with the Dortmund captaincy on a couple of occasions.
Some have claimed that honour has come far too early in the youngster’s fledgling career, something that former Manchester United defender Ferdinand disagrees with.
