Liverpool have been told that they “need” to sign Jude Bellingham in order to avoid using Trent Alexander-Arnold in an unfamiliar role.
The Reds continue to be linked with the Borussia Dortmund midfielder. Reports this past week have suggested that the Bundesliga club have placed a £103million asking price on Bellingham.
Despite having plenty of admirers within the Anfield hierarchy, a move for the 19-year-old, or any new midfielder, is not likely to happen until 2023. Liverpool are content with their transfer business this summer, after bringing in Darwin Nunez, Fabio Carvalho and Calvin Ramsay.
