A fresh insight into Premier League giants Liverpool’s ongoing pursuit of Borussia Dortmund sensation Jude Bellingham has been provided on Saturday evening.
The name of midfielder Bellingham, of course, has taken its place front and centre in the headlines across the season to date.
This comes as the teenage talent continues to pique the attentions of a whole host of the continent’s heavyweights, owing to a string of scintillating performances for Dortmund.
To this point, the likes of Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool have all been tipped as potential landing spots for Bellingham.
It is the latter’s fanbase, though, who appear by some way the most eager to see the England international land at the club ahead of next season.
This comes with Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool squad, of course, sorely lacking in depth in the middle of the park.
And now, as alluded to above, an update on the situation has been forthcoming online.
The info comes courtesy of transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who has confirmed that Liverpool have identified the Dortmund standout as the club’s ‘main target’.
Not only that, but contact has already been initiated on the part of the Reds.
Crucially, though, it is added that a further trio of giants from across Europe remain very much in the race for Bellingham’s signature, too, ahead of a likely bidding war in the summer of 2023.
Nothing has changed for Bellingham deal. Liverpool consider him the main target, contact already started — but Real Madrid, Manchester City and also Chelsea remain in the race. Nothing will be decided now. 🚨🏴 #transfers
