Jude Bellingham reportedly wanted to join Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, but it seems that he is on his way to Real Madrid now.
Jude Bellingham fancied Liverpool transfer
Earlier this month, Bild journalist Christian Falk wrote in CaughtOffSide that he had heard that Bellingham had actually planned to join Liverpool from Borussia Dortmund.
Falk claimed that the England international was planning to play for a few years for Liverpool before moving to Spanish and European giants Madrid.
However, according to the German journalist, Liverpool are unable to afford the cost of signing the 19-year-old in the summer transfer window.
On his way to Real Madrid
And now, according to 90min, Bellingham is on his way to last season’s La Liga and UEFA Champions League winners Real Madrid.
90min have reported that the youngster has agreed personal terms with Madrid and will sign an initial six-year contract.
There will also be a release clause of €1 billion in Bellingham’s contract at Madrid, according to the report.
Madrid will now have to agree a deal with Dortmund over the signing of the Englishman in the summer of 2023.
Big miss
Jude Bellingham is one of the best midfielders in the world, and Liverpool would be a better team with him in it.
The Englishman is a very dynamic box-to-box player who can hold his own in the middle of the park and can impose himself
Liverpool fans will be bitterly disappointed if indeed Bellingham does officially move to Madrid in the summer transfer window.
