Liverpool target Jude Bellingham has made the cut in the World Cup U-23 Best XI selected by Who Scored.
The England international has been linked with a switch to Anfield for months at this point.
Just recently, the Mirror had even claimed that his father was keen on a transfer to Jurgen Klopp’s side instead of Real Madrid or Manchester City.
Gianluca Di Marzio even told Soccer News that the 19-year-old considers Liverpool as his “dream destination”, which is promising news for the Kop.
Bellingham showcased just why the hype around his name is relentless at the World Cup.
The £130 million-rated wonderkid’s (Mail) unstoppable ball-carrying ability, defensive robustness and athleticism stood out, as he seemed unfazed in Qatar.
After Gareth Southgate’s men exited the competition, it’s safe to say that the Englishman was his nation’s best player.
Scoring the key opener against Iran and delivering a pinpoint assist for Jordan Henderson in the Round of 16 against Senegal, the Borussia Dortmund talisman had no qualms about taking games by the scruff of the neck.
Jude Bellingham has been recognised for his World Cup heroics
WhoScored have named Jude Bellingham in their World Cup U-23 Best XI, after his terrific displays for England.
The youngster has been named alongside some of the finest young players in Europe, such as Ibrahima Konate, Jamal Musiala, Vinicius Jr. and Bukayo Saka to name a few.
The Reds could build an exciting young core if they sign Bellingham
Looking back at the aforementioned XI, imagine the prospect of Liverpool having talents of the stature of both Ibrahima Konate and Jude Bellingham at their disposal.
With Fabio Carvalho (20), Harvey Elliott (19) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (24) still years away from hitting their primes, the Reds could have a scary team for the next decade.
Other elite clubs around Europe will hope Jude Bellingham does not fancy a move to Merseyside.
