Jude Bellingham ‘sacks’ live-in private chef after discussions with Real Madrid star’s mum
Midfielder had worked with the chef since the beginning of the season
JUDE BELLINGHAM has reportedly parted ways with his live-in chef Alberto Mastromatteo.
The pair linked up at the beginning of the season with Mastromatteo having a reputation for transforming the diet of former Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema.
The chef lived with Bellingham and his mother in Madrid but the pair have allegedly decided to relieve Mastromatteo of his duties, report Spanish outlet .
Mastromatteo’s company Summumm looks after the physical and mental well-being of various top athletes around the world, including Bellingham’s team-mate Eduardo Camavinga.
He is understood to put his clients on a diet consisting of rice, oats, quinoa, fresh vegetables, fish and some lean meat.
But the chef also believes in maintaining player morale and occasionally offers up chips or tortilla if necessary.
However Bellingham and his mum Denise are reported to have disagreed with his methods.
Denise is a big influence on the England star, with Bellingham admitting she is to thank for much of his success.
He said: “The role my mum is playing is massive.
“I think at the minute it is probably the biggest role of anyone, even probably more than my coaches and managers, to be honest.”
