Jude Bellingham (19) is attracting interest from Europe’s top clubs. While he is making a name for himself at Borussia Dortmund and with the England national team, the promising midfielder has a growing list of suitors ahead of next summer. His contract with the German club expires in 2025 and Manchester United are the latest club to bid for Bellingham.

Bellingham United’s top target

Although the Old Trafford outfit have no immediate urgency and their winter transfer window will not be very busy, Bellingham will be the first target for next summer, according to ESPN. Real Madrid, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City are the other clubs in the race to sign the youngster from Dortmund.

Real Madrid and Liverpool interest

Madrid and Liverpool have been following Bellingham for the longest time, and therefore have entered into the most advanced negotiations. But they will now have to compete with three other English giants who could pay upwards of £130m (145m euros) for the player, even though Dortmund are still trying to extend his deal beyond 2025.
