Liverpool are the current favourites to sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund and likely brought in Arthur Melo on loan as a stopgap before they move for the England midfielder, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth. The Reds spent over £95 million during the summer transfer window but Jurgen Klopp will soon have the opportunity to strengthen further at Anfield in the new year.
Liverpool are making progress in their attempts to sign Bellingham from Dortmund, according to Football Insider, ahead of a potential move next summer.
The report states that the Reds are looking to tie up a deal early to guarantee the 19-year-old’s arrival on Merseyside before their rivals have a chance to pounce.
Unsurprisingly, they are not the only club eyeing a move, with reports in Spain detailing that Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United are all interested.
