Germany striker Niclas Fullkrug has aimed a dig at England midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Bellingham has received much praise of late, especially after he scored England's only goal in their 1-0 win against Serbia in their opening Euro 2024 fixture.

Fullkrug was asked whether he has been impressed by Bellingham's recent form.

Like Bellingham, Fullkrug has also found the net at Euro 2024 as he scored a fine strike in Germany's 5-1 win against Scotland.

Fullkrug then featured as a substitute again Germany won 2-0 against Hungary to secure their place in the knockout stages.

When asked whether he has been impressed by Bellingham, Fullkrug shook his head and said: 'Impressed me not'.

However, the forward then gave a cheeky grin, indicating that he was joking.

Fullkrug and Bellingham could potentially face each other at some stage during Euro 2024 if Germany and England continue to make progress. 

Bellingham and Fullkrug have both represented Borussia Dortmund, although they weren't at the German club at the same time.

Bellingham was at Dortmund from July 2020 to July 2023 before signing for Real Madrid, while Fullkrug joined Dortmund in August 2023.
