Jurgen Klopp has denied that he has held talks with Jude Bellingham’s parents about a future move to Liverpool.
The England international is a longstanding Reds target, and is believed to be Klopp ’s first-choice to strengthen his midfield with Liverpool ’s engine-room in need of a major revamp.
However, Borussia Dortmund are seemingly unwilling to sanction an exit for the 19-year-old before the summer. Meanwhile, with the Reds facing rival interest from the likes of Man City and Real Madrid, it is likely they will need to part with a club-record fee if they are to be successful in efforts to sign the midfielder.
