German boss wants to sign Bundesliga star for Liverpool 

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham is one of Liverpool and Real Madrid's big targets for next season. However, the Manchester City striker could play a key role in Bellingham's future and spoil the plans of German manager Jurgen Klopp, who is desperate to sign him to improve his squad.

Jude Bellingham, 19, is Borussia Dortmund's rising star and is destined to be one of the transfer market's biggest shakers. Without going any further, he represents a real priority for Liverpool, all with the ambition of handing him the reins of their brilliant engine room. As a result, the Reds are already planning various strategies to secure the midfielder's signature.

However, the Merseyside outfit will face fierce competition from Manchester City. In particular, with regard to Erling Haaland (22 years old). As has been said more than once, the Sky Blues' predator has a superb friendly relationship with the promising midfielder. This could end up benefiting Pep Guardiola's side.

Therefore, the information provided by Ben Jacobs, journalist for CBS Sports, must be taken into account. The Norway international is reportedly trying to convince the Englishman to share a dressing room at the Etihad Stadium. The aforementioned source claims that the bidding (it could be €110m) is still open and red-hot, given that Bellingham is also being courted by Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United.

BVB's financial demands for Bellingham are also set to soar to a whopping €150m. Even so, his admirers will try to get a lower price tag. The German side are keen to negotiate a deal after the World Cup in Qatar, but Haaland could tip the balance in favour of the reigning Premier League champions.
