Jude Bellingham bags Bundesliga Player of the Season after team misses out on title on final day.
After Borussia Dortmund failed to win the Bundesliga title, Jude Bellingham got the Bundesliga Player of the Year award as a consolation medal.
Borussia Dortmund only achieved a 2-2 draw against Mainz on the last matchday, blowing a two-point advantage and handing Bayern Munich the league title. Bellingham managed to win the Bundesliga Player of the Year Award, which made up for the disappointment of missing out on the championship on the last day.

The English international had a successful season with the German team, tallying 14 goals and seven assists over 42 games. The 19-year-old, who had a summer transfer to Real Madrid rumored, reportedly said his colleagues farewell a day after the Bundesliga title battle ended.
Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are thought to have already reached an agreement for £108 million ($133 million), with £87 million ($107.4 million) in guaranteed money and a further £21 million ($26 million) in performance-based add-ons. He will shortly be introduced as a player for Los Blancos.
