Following his accolade as the recipient of France Football's Kopa Trophy, Bellingham engaged in a discussion with them and L'Equipe, revealing his strategic outlook for the immediate and near future with Real Madrid and the English national squad. When questioned about his ambitions for the next five years, Bellingham expressed, "I aim for five Champions League titles, a European Championship, and, perhaps, a World Cup. I always maintain an optimistic outlook. I see no reason to compete while expecting defeat. Every year, you must enter each competition with the belief that you can emerge victorious. Otherwise, what's the point? Thus, quantifying specific titles becomes challenging. I prefer to focus on consistently delivering strong performances and playing my game. In five years, if my family remains healthy and content, that's what matters most."

Bellingham's exceptional performance in the early stages of the 2023/24 season has placed him at the forefront of contenders for next year's Ballon d'Or. With Real Madrid leading La Liga and being one of the favorites to secure the Champions League, his ascent in the football world is nothing short of remarkable.
