We have to take the recent news about Jude Bellingham being 'increasingly unlikely' to join Liverpool with a pinch of salt until we know for sure what is going on.
If the lad wants to come to Anfield, that is the first priority. He has openly admitted Steven Gerrard is his hero and the club have to find a way to go and get him. Manchester City and Chelsea can afford to buy him and we have to be able to do the same. If he doesn’t want to come because of the situation we’re in with the Champions League, there’s nothing we can do about it. But if he were to come out and say Liverpool is his preference and then we don’t sign him, the fans won’t stand for that and there will be huge pressure on FSG. He is the number one target in most people's eyes and we need reinforcements in that area.
