Jude Bellingham honoured with bizarre statue made entirely of festive foods in hometown of Birmingham following 'most joyous moments' poll

Champions League

<p>Per <a href="https://www.dudleynews.co.uk/news/24755703.birmingham-pret-a-manger-unveil-jude-bellingham-sculpture/" target="_blank"><em>Dudley News</em></a>, a statue of Bellingham has been unveiled in Birmingham, in a shopfront, and it is made entirely out of food. The piece was commissioned by high street chain Pret-A-Manger, after a nationwide poll to find out Britons' fondest memory of 2024. As a result, the statue commemorates the Real Madrid ace's brilliant last-minute bicycle kick against Slovakia to save England from Euro 2024 elimination.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The image of Bellingham in mid-flight is a striking one and is made all the more so by the fact it is made up of items from Pret's Christmas food menu, including mince pies and gingerbread. Bellingham's goal came third in the poll, behind England reaching the final, and Sir David Attenborough celebrating his 70th anniversary as a conservationist.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Of course, England were beaten 2-1 by Spain in the final of the European Championships, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/gareth-southgate-resigns-as-england-manager-emotional-statement-after-euro-2024-final-heartbreak/bltd1a723cfd0ac920e" target="_blank">a result that prompted Gareth Southgate to resign</a>.
