Liverpool could hand Chelsea a huge boost towards signing Jude Bellingham in the summer following a shock U-turn on developments. The 19-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Borussia Dortmund for a while now as he continues to impress for club and country.
Bellingham, who sees his contract at the Signal Iduna Park expire in 2025, has been subject to long-term interest from the Blues, football.london understands. The west Londoners watched the midfielder during his time as an academy player at Birmingham City but, after failing to act on their interest, the German side swooped in and signed the teenager instead.
Ever since, the England international has attracted interest from some of the biggest clubs in Europe, including Liverpool too. However, with the Reds' midfield is desperate need of a revamp at the end of the season and Bellingham likely to cost a fortune, it appears that they may concede their position in the race for his signature.
