Former Liverpool forward Emile Heskey has insisted that his old side are "in the hunt" for England superstar Jude Bellingham despite interest from elsewhere.
The Borussia Dortmund midfielder has attracted attention from just about every major club on the continent, such is the ludicrous talent level he has been operating at since swapping Birmingham for the Bundesliga. It had been rumoured for quite some time that Liverpool were leading the charge for his signature, but recent developments have suggested that is no longer the case.
Real Madrid have reportedly entered the race, while Manchester City boast the advantage of already having two of Bellingham's former team-mates and friends in Erling Haaland and Manuel Akanji. If the Reds are to get this deal done, it will not be easy.
