Jude Bellingham has developed into one of the most promising young talents in world football during his time with Dortmund. He enjoyed a breakout campaign last season with the German club and was included in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for Euro 2020 thanks to his consistent performances.

The 18-year-old has grown from strength to strength this season, scoring six goals in 38 appearances for Dortmund. Liverpool are believed to be keen to sign the midfielder who has been likened to Patrick Vieira by Paul Merson due to his ‘bursts forward’ with the ball.

He added:

The teenage midfielder produced a Man of the Match performance in England’s 3-0 win over Ivory Coast during the international break. He has already amassed 12 appearances for the Three Lions.

Liverpool are believed to be monitoring Bellingham’s progress. The Merseyside club has been linked with a move for the 18-year-old in the past. Jurgen Klopp’s side are likely to face competition from a number of Europe’s top clubs for the Dortmund midfielder.

Liverpool are likely to face stiff competition from Manchester United for Jude Bellingham

Liverpool are believed to be eager to sign Jude Bellingham. The Borussia Dortmund star is seen as the ideal long-term replacement for club captain Jordan Henderson, who will turn 32 this year.

Liverpool are, however, likely to face stiff competition from arch-rivals Manchester United. The Red Devils are preparing themselves for the departure of Paul Pogba. The Frenchman’s contract with the club is set to expire at the end of the season, and he has thus far rejected the chance to extend his deal.

Manchester United will therefore be eager to sign a top-quality box-to-box midfielder to replace the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner. However, according to Indykaila, Jude Bellingham has rejected a move to Old Trafford.

The midfielder is believed to prefer a move to Liverpool as the Reds are likelier to provide him with the chance to win more silverware in the near future. The Merseyside club also possesses one of the best managers in world in the form of Jurgen Klopp, who is known for developing young talents.
