Jude Bellingham’s blossoming friendship with Liverpool’s two-man England contingent, Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold, has done enough on its own to fuel further transfer speculation in the midst of the World Cup.
Outside of Doha, trusted reporters like Florian Plettenberg have taken to Twitter to share updates on the situation and confirm the Reds’ continued commitment to securing the Englishman’s signing in the summer.
Beyond that, the 19-year-old’s Instagram activity (including that of the Merseysiders’ players themselves) has provided further clues into the matter, as relayed on social media @redfab_ and @JFritz66.

Such online activity, of course, should be taken with a grain of salt; As one of the leading midfielders in world football right now, it’s understandable why the likes of Virgil van Dijk and company would be interested in keeping an eye on him.

Only time will tell how much more serious that behavior should have been when it came to the Borussia Dortmund star choosing his next destination.
