Watch the heart-warming moment Jude Bellingham is reunited with his father in Turin after winning Golden Boy award

Jude Bellingham enjoyed a heart-warming reunion with his father after recently winning the Golden Boy 2023 award recognising the best young men's player.

The England and Real Madrid midfielder was voted for the individual accolade at an awards ceremony in Turin, Italy and shared a hug with his dad afterwards.
