The 19-year-old is still under contract with BVB until 2025. Most recently, Bellingham committed to Borussia, but not explicitly beyond the coming summer. “The club have done a lot for me and made me feel very welcome since I’ve been here and given me the opportunity to develop further.

Jude is one of them and we try to keep them for as long as possible. But in the end, money is another aspect and England pay a lot more than Germany. We have to practice our philosophy every year renew.”
After the World Cup, BVB should apparently set a minimum sum for which Bellingham could leave the club early. The Athletic called an amount of up to 150 million euros mark wrote of just over 100 million.
Almost all top European clubs have long entered the transfer race for Bellingham. Last reported sky however, that only three clubs can calculate chances of a transfer of the midfielder.

According to English media reports, it is possible that Liverpool will sign two or three midfielders next summer and therefore not so much money can only be powdered in Bellingham. James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita are out of contract at the end of the season and none of them are expected to stay at Anfield beyond 2023.

I like his personality and that’s the most important thing. I like the way he behaves. I only have good things to say about him. There really are no limits for him.” said Henderson.
MANCHESTER CITY

Noisy Football Insider there is also a mind game about Jack Grealish, who signed from Aston Villa in 2021 for 117.5 million euros and became the most expensive British player in history. Selling Grealish early would free up the money City needed for Bellingham to balance their financial accounts.

FC BAYERN MUNICH
“Of course I think Bellingham is a very good player,” said FCB CEO Oliver Kahn in the sports picture.“With Kimmich, Goretzka, Gravenberch and Sabitzer we are very well occupied in the position, so we don’t have to worry about it at all.”
FC Bayern will obviously not get into the Bellingham poker game. But that doesn’t have to mean anything, after all, FCB denied interest in Erling Haaland several times in the pre-season – and was then still one of the hottest candidates for a commitment from the former BVB striker.
