Man Utd inadvertently disrupt Liverpool transfer plan with Casemiro deal

Liverpool's plans to snap up Jude Bellingham could be ruined by Manchester United - with Real Madrid now expected to move for the Borussia Dortmund starlet after selling Casemiro to the Red Devils.

The Reds have resisted the temptation to bring in midfield reinforcements in recent weeks despite Bellingham emerging as the club's top transfer target. Jurgen Klopp is prepared to wait 12 months to land the England ace as it is believed that Bellingham is unattainable this summer.

However, Liverpool's transfer masterplan could now be in jeopardy thanks to their arch rivals after Erik ten Hag's side confirmed that a £60million deal to bring Casemiro to Old Trafford has been agreed in principle. Marca claim that Los Blancos are plotting to launch a raid of their own for Bellingham with those funds.
