Gary Neville has raved about reported Liverpool target Jude Bellingham on ITV (6:42pm, November 25, 2022).

The former Manchester United defender believes that Bellingham, linked with a move to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the summer of 2023, is the perfect midfield player.

90min reported this month that Liverpool and Manchester United have scouted Bellingham in action for Dortmund in the Bundesliga.

SkySport journalist Florian Plettenberg has reported on Twitter that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp personally wants the 19-year-old England international midfielder and is pushing to get a deal done for him in the summer of 2023.

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has also spoken highly of Bellingham.

Praise for Liverpool target Jude Bellingham

Neville said about Bellingham: “He is almost like the perfect midfield player. If you are making perfect midfield player, that would be him.”

Wright added: “He is that midfielder that can create something, progress the ball and go through players.”

Making Liverpool better

In our view, Jude Bellingham would be a brilliant signing for Liverpool next summer and would make Jurgen Klopp’s side so much better in midfield for years to come.

The 19-year-old is a very dynamic player who can operate in a box-to-box role.

Bellingham is a regular for Dortmund and for England, and he is already a hugely experienced player.

And he is only 19.

The teenager has played in the Bundesliga, the UEFA Champions League, the European Championship and the World Cup already.
