When it comes to a teenage talent Dortmund already possess, Jude Bellingham's future continues to tend toward Real Madrid. Two Spanish sources, "AS" and "Marca", claim that the Spanish capital city side have upped their offer threshold from €100 million to €120 million. This still falls short of the reported €150 million that Dortmund are apparently demanding for the 19-year-old, but might very well serve as sufficient to get the deal done.
Bellingham is said to have decided in favor of Real and would ostensibly like to have his future sorted out as well. "Marca" goes so far as to report that a delegation from the Spanish club will be headed to Germany to wrap up the transfer with both club and player in the coming days. The offer from the Spanish champions could also, per the two papers, rise to €150 million with performance-based bonuses.
