Which teams are Liverpool competing with to sign Bellingham?

He is only 19 years old. However, this has not prevented Jude Bellingham from becoming one of the most sought-after players on the international football scene. The reason for this is none other than the sensational display he has been putting in for Borussia Dortmund since joining the club.

Thus, and unless there is a radical turn of events in the coming months, the former Birmingham player will become the Signal Iduna Park outfit's next big-money sale. Arriving in the summer of 2020 for a mere €23m, the offers that have come in so far are many times what the Germans have paid out.

It was his competition, but now he has helped Luis Diaz to improve

Last summer, a number of clubs were already interested in signing the player, whose contract runs until June 2025, but none of them came to fruition. And after what was achieved with Ousmane Dembélé, Jadon Sancho or Erling Haaland himself, Borussia Dortmund will not allow the player to leave if they do not receive a sum of millions in return.

In Real Madrid's sights with a view to making him a new member of their midfield, the stiff competition he would face in the Spanish capital could make this option difficult. Meanwhile, just a few days ago it was reported that Chelsea were willing to put up €113m to get ahead of the other bidders, including Liverpool, where Jürgen Klopp is a big admirer of his game.

<strong>Manchester United also want him</strong>

With Manchester Evening News this morning revealing that Manchester United are also in the race for his signature, the fight is sure to be sensational. Borussia Dortmund, who have priced the young talent at €120m, are already rubbing their hands together over what could be the most expensive sale in their history.
