Jude Bellingham said he wants to be at Real Madrid for the next 10 to 15 years despite Premier League interest.
England sealed top spot in their group and qualified for next summer's European Championship after dispatching Italy 3-1 at Wembley on Wednesday.
Bellingham, at just 20-years-old, played an integral role for two of England's three goals, and was given a standing ovation upon being substituted in the 84th minute.

After the game Bellingham told Channel 4 of his desire to remain at Real Madrid for the next ten to 15 years.
Indeed, the player attracted the interest of Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain before sealing a move to the La Liga giants for an initial fee of £88.5million.
On Real, the midfielder explained: "I've said since I arrived it's a club I want to be at for the next 10 to 15 years of my life. I love the club".
When pushed on whether he would make a Premier League move, Bellingham smiled and said: "Yeah I know. Yeah, we'll see".
On Real taking his game to another level, Bellingham added: "When you're around those type of mentalities and players with that quality every day - you see them in the gym; you see how they prepare for games, the analysis, the physio work they get done; you see the work on the pitch, how competitive some of the training sessions are - it just takes you to a new level technically.

"I feel I've just got to keep listening and my game will improve."
