Real Madrid have been linked with some of the biggest talents in world football recently. It is pretty clear that the club want to rebuild their squad around youth, who will keep the team competitive not just now but for years to come as well. And their top priority in that regard is believed to be Jude Bellingham of Borussia Dortmund, who ticks every box that they could possibly be looking for.
Bellingham is arguably the best player in the Bundesliga right now. He is already proven at the Champions League level as well. And he was the shining light for the England national team at the recent World Cup.
Thus, it is not hard to understand why Real Madrid might want to sign him. But there are a number of obstacles on the path to Bellingham’s signature as well.
On one hand, it is believed that Borussia Dortmund could look for a transfer fee in the region of €150 million to part ways with Bellingham. On the other hand, the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City, PSG, Manchester United and Chelsea are all believed to be interested in the Englishman as well. There is some good news for Real Madrid though.
€150 million star dreams of playing for Real Madrid and is a fan of Zinedine Zidane
As tweeted out by Santi Aouna, Bellingham is a Zidane fan. He dreams of one day playing for Real Madrid.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for Bellingham. But that is a positive update for Real Madrid. Of course, a lot of other things go into a transfer and as a result, nothing is set in stone regarding the Englishman’s next destination.
A return to England would surely hold some interest as well. On the other hand, it is believed that Borussia Dortmund would try to extend his deal as well.
