Jude Bellingham has already delivered verdict on future amid Liverpool and Real Madrid interest

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham has already said where he will be next season amid interest from England and Spain.

The 18-year-old is arguably one of the most sought after young talents in Europe at the moment with clubs across the continent keeping track of his progress. He's only been at Dortmund since 2020, but he's already being linked with a move away.

However, given the Bundesliga side have already sold one of their big hitters this summer in Erling Haaland, it's highly unlikely they will also sanction a move for Bellingham.

The England international has already expressed his commitment to Dortmund and said he will be playing at Signal Iduna Park next season. Which means the likes of Liverpool will have to wait if they consider pursuing a move.

“The only future I think about is the next game for Dortmund," Bellingham told German publication Ruhr Nachrichten last term. “I look forward to next season. I look forward to it finally starting. But yes, I will be here next season and I will be ready.”

It is understood Liverpool's business in terms of incomings this summer is complete, having announced the signing of defender Calvin Ramsay earlier today. It is believed the club are happy to wait until 2023 before they look to strengthen in the midfield department.

Liverpool were interested in Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, before it became clear the 22-year-old favoured a move to Real Madrid. Reports in Spain this week suggested the Champions League winners could also move for Bellingham, as per Cadena SER.

There's also interest from other Premier League sides, including Chelsea, which means Liverpool will face a tough battle to land the midfielder if they're to make a move next summer. The World Cup later this year could also see the player's price increase further if he is to have an impressive tournament.
