Liverpool are upping the pressure in their pursuit of Jude Bellingham and may have forced rivals Real Madrid to explore alternative options, according to Sky Sports Germany.
Bellingham is no doubt set to be the world's most in-demand player in the summer after an outstanding start to his domestic season with Borussia Dortmund. The teenager is currently starring for England in their World Cup campaign and started all three of their games as the Three Lions topped Group B and set up a Sunday evening round-of-16 tie against Senegal.
The Reds are thought to be one of several massive admirers of Bellingham, but face stiff competition from the likes of Madrid and Manchester City for the 19-year-old's signature. That being said, Jurgen Klopp's side are said to be among the favourites to sign the teenager.
