Bellamy’s father instead promised to start a team provided Bellamy could find enough players after the local Pentwyn Dynamo expressed interest in him but were turned off by his modest stature.

Bellamy scored all four goals in the debut game for the local team Caer Castell FC’s under-10s shortly after the club was founded.

Later, he was chosen to compete for Cardiff Schools and a Cardiff and District team at the national level.

He continued to attend Rumney High School but dropped out without receiving any GCSEs.
Bellamy started drinking alcohol frequently when he was 12 years old, made friends with a group of largely older lads, and started skipping school for up to two weeks at a period.

The next year, he joined Newcastle United, where over the course of four years, he contributed to the club finishing in the top four twice.

Bellamy spent the last months of the 2004–05 season on loan at Celtic, where he won the Scottish Cup, before developing a rift with manager Graeme Souness in 2005.

Bellamy earned 78 caps for his nation over the course of the following fifteen years, contributing 19 goals. From 2007 through 2011, when he resigned from the position owing to persistent ailments, he served as the team’s captain.

After the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign, Bellamy announced his retirement from international football. He participated in the 2012 London Olympics as a member of the Great Britain Olympic team, making five appearances and scoring once.

Bobby Robson referred to Bellamy as “the gobbiest footballer I’ve ever met” after he became involved in a number of high-profile incidents involving teammates, managers, and members of the public during the course of his career.
