Real Madrid have announced the signing of Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, with the England midfielder agreeing a six-year contract at the Bernabéu.
The 19-year-old moved to Germany from boyhood club Birmingham in 2020, but has long dreamt of playing for the Spanish giants.
Dortmund confirmed in a statement last week that Madrid had agreed to pay an initial €103m (£88.5m) to land Bellingham. Now Real have confirmed the deal is complete. “Real Madrid CF and Borussia Dortmund have agreed on the transfer of the player Jude Bellingham, who will remain linked to our club for the next six seasons,” their statement read. “Tomorrow, Thursday, 15 June, at 12pm at Real Madrid City, the presentation ceremony for Jude Bellingham as a new Real Madrid player will take place.
After, Jude Bellingham will appear before the media.” Bellingham was recently named the Bundesliga’s player of the season after his starring role for Dortmund, who missed out on the title in agonising fashion on the final day of the campaign.
