Liverpool have been heavily associated with Jude Bellingham in the past and, following an impressive performance against Manchester City, there has been an apparent update of our interest.
As Mike McGrath reported for The Telegraph: “Liverpool are expected to lead the pursuit of Jude Bellingham next summer in a race that could drag Europe’s biggest clubs for Borussia Dortmund’s teenage midfielder.”
It’s an encouraging report to read and will certainly excite our fans, along with his impressive header at the Etihad Stadium in the Champions League.

After the match, Pep Guardiola was very public in his adoration for the midfielder, so it will certainly be a run for the player this summer.
We will certainly be in the market for a top signing and it looks like the FSG will be keen to back Jurgen Klopp, if they want the England international midfielder in their squad.
The problem is that this search is very public, so if we want to sign the 19-year-old, it will take more than performances on the pitch and we could be left out of a deal.
It’s great to hear that so far we’ve been touted as the leaders in this negotiation, but there’s almost a year to go before any deal is signed; it is definitely a marathon and not a sprint.
