Real Madrid ‘accept Jude Bellingham will join Premier League with Man City and Liverpool battling over transfer’

REAL MADRID have allegedly accepted that transfer target Jude Bellingham’s next move will be to the Premier League.

Bellingham, 19, is one of the most in-demand teenagers in world football after his exploits at the World Cup and for Borussia Dortmund.

Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City have all been linked with the ex-Birmingham City midfield ace.

We reported last week how Newcastle had now joined the transfer chase, while Real Madrid also hold a heavy interest in signing the teenage sensation.

Los Blancos have been trying to work on a deal for some time with their chief scout Juni Calafat already “taking care of relations” with Bellingham’s father, Mark, who manages his son’s career.

However, The Athletic have stated that with Liverpool and City both “pushing hard”, Real Madrid “are becoming resigned to the fact that the financial muscle of the Premier League is almost unbeatable”.

The LaLiga giants and Champions League holders will still put up a big fight to secure Bellingham.

However, they know that any financial package they offer will be below those available from England.

Dortmund are also desperate to try and keep hold of the youngster.

They know that Premier league clubs are “in pole position” to snap-up their talisman but they still hope to convince him to sign an extension to his current deal which ends in 2025.
