According to ESPN, Jurgen Klopp‘s Liverpool are ahead of Chelsea, Manchester United, and Manchester City in the hunt to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham.
According to the source, Liverpool is developing a tight relationship with Bellingham’s camp, which is also being pursued by Chelsea, Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Manchester City.
The Reds are said to be favorites to sign the 19-year-old England international midfielder, who is expected to cost €150 million (£130.64 million) in transfer fees next summer.
It was only this week when Bild in Germany reported that Chelsea have made contact with Dortmund over a move for the England international.
In our view, Jude Bellingham would be a brilliant signing for Liverpool in the summer of 2023 and would be a coup for the Reds.
Chelsea, Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Manchester City are massive clubs, and beating the competition to sign one of the best young talents in the world would be a massive statement from Liverpool.
Yes, of course, we know that Liverpool is a massive club and a global brand, but they are not having the best of seasons in the Premier League and could miss out on a top-four finish.
