Liverpool 'set to miss out on Jobe Bellingham' after making contact over transfer

Sunderland are set to sign Jobe Bellingham from Birmingham - a year after Liverpool made contact with the teenager over a potential move to Anfield.

Jobe, younger brother of Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham, is expected to make the switch to Wearside following an impressive first full season in senior football. The 17-year-old has made 22 Championship appearances this term, adding to the two he made during the 2021/22 campaign.

Despite being linked with a move to Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester City amongst others, Jobe is set to sign a contract with Sunderland in a deal worth around £3million. Jobe, who was born in 2005, will travel up to the North East within the next 10 days to complete his move to the Black Cats.
