Jamie Redknapp has revealed he had a conversation with former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard about Jude Bellingham before the midfielder opened the scoring for England at the World Cup.
The Three Lions kicked off their World Cup campaign on Monday afternoon with a 6-2 win over Iran with 19-year-old Borussia Dortmund midfielder Bellingham breaking the deadlock with a a headed goal similar to the one that Anfield legend Gerrard scored in the 2005 Champions League final in Istanbul.
Bellingham has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool but, should they make a move, either in January or next summer, they will face competition from the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester United and Manchester City.
