Pep Guardiola has already warned Jude Bellingham against making a decision he would regret, amid suggestions the Catalan's Manchester City side are leading the race for the midfielder.
Bellingham, 19, left Birmingham City for Borussia Dortmund in 2020 despite interest from Premier League giants Manchester United. A series of impressive performances for England at the World Cup have seen a number of top sides linked with a move, though he could cost north of £100million.
City are said to believe they hold the advantage, with Liverpool and Real Madrid among the other clubs in the picture. The Sky Blues believe the presence of Guardiola at the helm offers them an advantage - and the former Bayern Munich boss had some words of caution for the youngster in October.
