star Brahim Diaz has revealed that he has copied England international Jude Bellingham by cutting holes in his socks.<\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard returned to Real Madrid in the summer after spending three years on loan at AC Milan.<\/p>\n<p>Upon his return, Bellingham joined Los Blancos from Borussia Dortmund and it appears the pair have struck up a friendship, with Diaz speaking English dating back to his time at Man City.<\/p>\n<p>Diaz has since revealed that he has taken inspiration from his new team-mate as he has copied Bellingham by cutting holes in his socks.<\/p>\n<p>The phenomena has been seen across Europe, with several English players such as Bukayo Saka and Conor Gallagher also choosing to cut up their socks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

matches and I didn&#8217;t know why,&#8217; he revealed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Bellingham runs for 90 minutes and he&#8217;s fine, so I said I have to do something.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>He continued to joke that he is hoping that the decision doesn&#8217;t backfire and cause him to pick up another injury this season.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8216;Let&#8217;s hope they don&#8217;t blow up again now that I go up the stairs!&#8217; he joked.<\/p>\n<p>Fans had picked up on Bellingham&#8217;s decision to cut up his socks dating back to his time in Germany.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The reason that players cut the\u00a0back of socks is to relieve tension and prevent pain in their calves.<\/p>\n<p>Tight socks can result in injuries and cutting holes is these has become a common solution for many players across football.<\/p>\n<p>Diaz will be hoping that copying Bellingham in this way can lead to him replicating the form of his team-mate, who has been on fire in Madrid so far this season.<\/p>\n<p>He has already broken the Real Madrid goalscoring record set by Cristiano Ronaldo, scoring 14 already this season.<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking
