Liverpool told to pay €150m for Dortmund box-to-box midfielder


The price tag for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham has reportedly risen to €150m (£130m).

Bellingham is currently under contract with Dortmund until June 2025, but he has attracted interest from a number of Europe’s biggest clubs.

Liverpool, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Chelsea have all been linked with a move for the England international.

According to Mundo Deportivo, starting bids for Bellingham could begin around €150m (£130m), with Liverpool believed to be the player’s preferred destination.

While the 19-year-old is set to discuss his future with Dortmund in the near future, a recent report claimed that Paris Saint-Germain have opened talks with the German club about a possible transfer.

Dortmund’s asking price has supposedly increased following Bellingham’s performance at the 2022 World Cup, where he started all of England’s five games, registering one goal and an assist.

Since joining the Bundesliga side from Birmingham City in the summer of 2020, Bellingham has scored 19 goals and provided 21 assists in 112 appearances.

Meanwhile, Enzo Fernandez will reportedly only leave Benfica if his €120m (£103m) release clause is met by an interested club.

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are reported to be tracking Fernandez’s progress and have made contact with his representatives to register their interest.

Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Manchester United are also rumoured to be interested.

90min reports that the Portuguese club have told the player’s representatives that the release clause must be met if the Argentine is to leave the Estadio da Luz.

Liverpool set to make official move for 24-year-old midfielder valued at£39.8m

  Liverpool have reportedly reignited their interest in Matheus Nunes and are weighing up a £44m swoop for the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder. The Portugal international was heavily linked with a move to Anfield during the summer transfer window, but Jurgen Klopp’s side decided against spending big on a new lynchpin. Still determined to test himself in the Premier League, Nunes became the latest Portuguese player to arrive at Wolves, who paid €45m (£39.8m) to bring the 24-year-old to the club from Sporting Lisbon. Nunes has one assist to show from 14 Premier League games for Julen Lopetegui’s side, and he is under contract at Molineux until 2027 with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. However, Nunes’s efforts have not been able to prevent Wolves’ slide down the table, with Lopetegui’s men sat 19th in the rankings after taking just 13 points from 17 games. Should Wolves drop back down to the Championship, Nunes would not be e...

(Video) Thiago’s three brilliant defensive challenges that demonstrate his Anfield dominance

  Thiago Alcantara had yet another brilliant display for Liverpool and it wasn’t just his usual passing and attacking prowess that was on show but his tackling and defensive abilities too. One video has been created to show three instances when our No.6 won the ball back inside his own half and they were all done with the usual style and class we are used to seeing from the Spain international. It wasn’t the best display from Jurgen Klopp’s squad but the 31-year-old could leave the pitch with his head held high, after helping the Reds secure all three points. Let’s hope his form continues and that we can extend our run of four successive victories in the Premier League. He is immense pic.twitter.com/KdobOK8Feh — - (@PassLikeThiago) December 31, 2022

Bayern Munich eyeing up another Liverpool star – Likely far cheaper than Mané deal

Image
 With a few clubs, including Manchester United, reportedly interested in Eric Choupo-Moting, currently at Bayern Munich, the Bavarian side are preparing for the worst. Having already lost Robert Lewandowski in the summer, the Bundesliga giants have had to rely on the Cameroon international more often than not, but his contract expires in the summer. This has made him attractive for many clubs in January, which is why Bayern Munich are looking at Liverpool for a potential replacement. This is because the Reds have a player in a similar situation as Choupo-Moting in Roberto Firmino, whose contract at Anfield expires in the summer. There have been reports the Brazilian wouldn’t mind extending at Liverpool, but he will take his time to evaluate what his future can bring him. Media Foot in France suggest that could include a transfer back to Germany, where he initially made a name for himself at Hoffenheim. The outlet explain the Liverpool forward ‘is among the profiles studied’ by...
