Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are set to face each other on Saturday at Wembley Stadium in a highly anticipated Champions League final. 

Speaking on Monday's media day at Real Madrid's training ground, Jude Bellingham described the club's upcoming showdown against his former team Dortmund as "a fairy tale ending" to his debut season with the Spanish club. 

"I think it's a bit of a fairy tale kind of ending to a great season, being back home in England, playing against Dortmund, obviously a lot of factors for me that can make it perhaps a little bit emotional."

The 20-year-old has been one of the standout players for Los Blancos this season, scoring 23 goals overall. On Saturday, the Englishman will face his former team of the past three seasons, as well as his former teammate at Dortmund and England, Jadon Sancho.

"I spoke to Jadon a little bit, and he's someone that I respect a lot and that I know very well from my time in Dortmund. So yeah, it will be nice to see them until about nine o'clock."
