Even one reported Liverpool target was left impressed by tonight’s clash with Manchester City.
Liverpool held the Premier League champions to a 2-2 draw at Anfield in arguably one of the best games that English football will see this season.
All four goals were scored during a rip-roaring second half in which Kevin de Bruyne’s equaliser late on was the final contribution.
The Manchester City star cancelled out Mohamed Salah’s stunner, after Phil Foden had earlier negated Sadio Mane’s opener.
Jude Bellingham was linked with a move to Liverpool this past summer, with Eurosport claiming that Borussia Dortmund value him at £100 million.
Here’s how the 18-year-old sensation reacted to the clash:
According to The Star, Liverpool are winning the race to sign the Birmingham City youth product.
And their chances aren’t bad at all by virtue of the fact that he watched this evening’s game.
This Liverpool side is very, very good and what young player wouldn’t want the chance to be involved in what Klopp is continuing to build on Merseyside?
There’s still the small matter of the Anfield club being able to afford the reported nine-figure transfer fee, of course.
But if the Reds are genuinely winning the race, this game will have improved their chances.
