Jack Grealish has asked Jude Bellingham to ‘sign’ for Manchester City while the Dortmund man continues to be linked to Liverpool.
While a few European clubs continue to be linked to the Englishman, it has been rumoured that Liverpool and Real Madrid are serious contenders to sign the midfielder.
Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of the 19-year-old and looks to bring the midfielder to Merseyside. However, the Englishman’s form at Dortmund has attracted many clubs from Europe.
Real Madrid, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Chelsea have all been linked to the ex-Birmingham star.
Even though the Reds are linked to a number of midfielders over the summer for their midfield overhaul, Bellingham looks to be their number 1 priority.
The 19-year-old is already a regular starter for Dortmund and has been an important part of the England squad.
Grealish asking Bellingham to ‘sign’ for City
Manuel Akanji posted a series of pictures of himself on Instagram. Since Bellingham and Akanji were former teammates, the Englishman left a comment below the post.
Bellingham wrote: “He’s changed,” while tagging Dortmund team-mate Giovanni Reyna, along with a shocked face emoji.
Grealish replied to Bellingham’s comment, by writing: “Come to city xx.”
This has led to a lot of speculations from the City fans where a few are convinced that the player is joining City.
The duo play for the Three Lions and have been an important part of Southgate’s squad. Grealish has 29 caps while Bellingham has 22 caps for England.
Jude has been the youngest English player to score in the Champions League, at just 17 years of age. Moreover, he has also been the second youngest player to score for England in a World Cup. He was just 19 years when he scored against Iran in the 2022 World Cup.
With all these achievements, any elite club will be looking to get his services. While as per the sources, it has been speculated that Bellingham will decide upon his future during this international break.
