MEGA SIGNING: Manchestet United finally to break the bank to sign Bundesliga No.22 midfielder

Man Utd told to break the bank to sign Bundesliga No.22 midfielder

German giants, Borussia Dortmund have reportedly set Jude Bellingham’s price tag at £103m amid interest from Man Utd.

With Erling Braut Haaland having made the move to Manchester City earlier this summer, the England international is now a main player at Dortmund and the German giants not planning to lose him for less then £103m.

In his two years at the Westfalenstadion, the teenager has been a revelation, already establishing himself as the heartbeat of the team in his 89 games.

Bellingham, who become 19 years of age on Wednesday, has also managed to found the back of the net 10 times and provided 18 assists, largely from the middle of the pitch.

At a time when he has three years left on his current deal, Dortmund have no intention of entertaining any proposals for the player this summer.

However, unless Bellingham pens a new deal over the next 12 months, there is every expectation that he will be allowed to move on for the right price.

According to Bild, the German giants intend to demand in the region of £103m for a player who is being tipped to become one of the best playmakers in the world for years to come.

That alleged decision comes off the back of Bellingham contributing four goals and 11 assists from his 38 games in Germany’s top flight and the Champions League in 2021-22.

Bellingham is not short of admirers and it was claimed earlier this week that Real Madrid were already planning to put forward a proposal in 2023.

Club officials allegedly view the former Birmingham City youngster as the perfect addition to form a midfield trio alongside Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni.

However, that particular report claimed that Los Blancos were only prepared to offer £77m, a figure which would seemingly be rejected out of hand.

Liverpool and Manchester United have also been linked with Bellingham in the past, the suggestion being that the latter would emerge as a realistic destination should they achieve Champions League football for 2023-24.
