Peter Schmeichel hints Jude Bellingham was right to snub Manchester United

Peter Schmeichel has hinted that Jude Bellingham was correct to snub Manchester United's advances before sealing a move to Borussia Dortmund.

The former Birmingham City midfielder has been in electric form for England so far in Qatar, none more so than during the Three Lions' 3-0 victory over Senegal on Monday evening. A constant livewire throughout, Bellingham was directly involved in both of England's first two goals, first setting up Jordan Henderson, before playing in Phil Foden, who laid the ball square to Harry Kane to score a second.

With rumors again intensifying about just where the teenager's immediate future lies, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United are all known to be interested, with some reports suggesting the Dortmund man could now cost upwards of £150m.
