Manchester United are out of the running for Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, while Premier League rivals Liverpool are still pushing to sign the England international.
The Reds have been tipped as the favorites to snatch the 19-year-old on many occasions, but they face fierce competition from European heavyweights Real Madrid as well as other Premier League clubs, reports ACE.
The Borussia Dortmund star is expected to leave Germany this summer and one place he won’t end up at is Old Trafford, reports Florian Plettenburg of Sky Germany.
Bellingham will cost his next club €100-150m and Jurgen Klopp is said to still be pushing for the England international.

Bellingham has grown very close to Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson during the World Cup and many Liverpool fans will see this as a good sign ahead of next summer’s transfer window.
The 19-year-old would have been a great signing for Man United and would have formed a solid pairing with Casemiro in the Red Devils’ double pivot.
The Dortmund star is having a spectacular World Cup campaign and if Dortmund now decide to ask for even more than the €150m it will be seen in the near future.
