Trent Alexander-Arnold's advice to Bellingham on his arrival at Liverpool

The eyes of the world are on the final round of 16 in Qatar, where England are looking to end a 56-year run without lifting the World Cup, but first they must overcome former Reds legend Sadio Mané's surprise package Senegal, who despite not being with them, believe the 'Black Lions' can spring a surprise.

England, who are coached by Gareth Southgate in his second spell in charge, have big stars in their ranks, through a combination of youth and experience, with Jude Bellingham one of the most outstanding players in the 'Three Lions' squad, getting minutes in all three Group Stage games, where he scored England's first goal of the World Cup, against Iran.

Bellingham is the jewel of Borussia Dortmund, where he has already won a title, the DFB Pokal 20/21, which together with his achievements and personal records, BVB put a termination clause of 150 million euros for him. Bellingham has a contract with the German club until 2025, and according to reports in Germany, his agent and Dortumund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke will talk after Jude finishes his participation in Qatar with England.

It is in the England national team where Jude shares a dressing room with Liverpool stars Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold, the latter being the one with whom he has the closest relationship in the dressing room and who, according to reports within the national team, has already given Bellingham advice to sign for the Red's once and for all in this January's transfer window.

Trent would have recommended him to go to the Premier League, a league that would raise his level and improve his professional career. Curiously Jude, despite being English, has not played in the EPL, as he was formed in the ranks of Birmingham City, a promoted team, who sold him in 2020 to the Bundesliga for 25 million, a figure that today does not even cover the annual salary of the midfielder who is listed as one of the best youth players in Qatar 2022.
