Football rumours: Real Madrid ramp up pursuit of Jude Bellingham

breakingnews.ie

Real Madrid have reportedly made first contact with Jude Bellingham as they ramp up their pursuit of the Borussia Dortmund midfielder.

The Daily Mail, citing AS, says a representative from the team travelled to Germany to meet the 19-year-old and his family, with the club angling for a mammoth £123.7million (€140 million) deal.

The Manchester Evening News says Manchester United are planning to let winger Facundo Pellistri leave the club on loan next season.

The club is believed to be confident in the 21-year-old’s long-term prospects, and view a loan move as preferable to selling him outright. Wilfried Zaha has been offered a £9m-a-season deal by Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad, according to the Daily Mail.
