Man Utd offered Jude Bellingham double the salary of rival teams and he still rejected

Jude Bellingham turned down Manchester United despite the Red Devils offering twice as much as other suitors.

That's according to Dong Ren, who was chief executive at Birmingham City when Bellingham left the club in 2020. The teenage midfielder joined Borussia Dortmund for more than £20m, but the Bundesliga club are expected to make a big return on investment if and when he leaves Signal Iduna Park.

Bellingham's performances for club and country have seen him linked with Liverpool, Manchester City and Real Madrid. A fee of more than £100m has been mooted, further adding to United's pain at failing to convince the starlet to move to Old Trafford.
