Jurgen Klopp is reportedly “pushing hard” for Liverpool to bring Jude Bellingham to Anfield.
This comes courtesy of a tweet from trusted journalist Florian Plettenberg with the Reds said to have identified Brighton & Hove Albion’s Moises Caicedo as ‘an alternative’.
As reported: Liverpool are doing everything and Klopp is pushing hard! Internal saying: Bellingham first! Caicedo is an alternative. Liverpool is highly valued by the player. But nothing decided yet. LFC will not pay all prices. Dortmund expect between 100 and 150 million euros!

Borussia Dortmund are said to value the teenager between £86.3m and £129.5m, a figure that could rise exponentially if the midfielder continues to perform at the World Cup.

We won’t have the funds to compete with Manchester City and Real Madrid if Bellingham’s asking price goes crazy, so it’s smart to have an alternative ready-made.
However, given what we already know about the England international, there’s no doubt it would be a coup of epic proportions to see him link up with one of our domestic or European rivals.
