Diogo Jota, a Liverpool attacker, has praised the Reds' transfer target Jude Bellingham. At the age of 18, the Borussia Dortmund player has established himself as one of the best midfielders in Europe. 

According to Transfermarkt, Bellingham will join the Bundesliga giants in 2020 for €26 million after leaving Championship side Birmingham City. Since then, the adolescent has appeared 86 times for the BVB, scoring 10 goals in various competitions. He scored his first goal for Dortmund as a senior player, making him the club's youngest ever goalscorer. 

Bellingham made history by becoming the youngest player ever to compete in the European Championships last summer.

 

Liverpool have been linked with a move for the midfielder, according to the Mirror. Jota is unquestionably a fan of the English wonderkid. When questioned about Bellingham on PlayStation's YouTube channel, the Liverpool attacker stated, according to HITC Sport, "He has everything for a complete midfielder." He'll be one of the best players in the future, in my opinion."

 

Is it possible that Liverpool will recruit Jude Bellingham this summer? 

There's no doubt that the Birmingham-born midfielder would help nearly any team in the world, and he's one of Europe's hottest prospects. 

Bellingham would be a good fit for Jurgen Klopp's three-man midfield. If he wanted to transfer to Anfield, he would face competition from the likes of Thiago Alcantara, Fabinho, and Jordan Henderson. 

Dortmund, on the other hand, are unlikely to move both of their greatest prospects in the same window, with star striker Erling Haaland allegedly ready to join Manchester City this summer. 

BVB is well-known for selling their star players to clubs with significantly greater financial resources. Players like Jadon Sancho, Ousmane Dembele, Christian Pulisic, and Mario Gotze are just a few instances of recent high-profile departures from Signal Iduna Park. 

With the exception of Demebele, those landmark sales were all completed in separate seasons. After selling Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Arsenal in 2017, Dortmund was adamant about keeping the French wonderkid at the club. However, Barcelona eventually snatched him up. 

However, because to the lateness of the transaction, the Spanish club was compelled to pay €140 million for the winger. This is the third most expensive transfer in history, according to Transfermarkt. Dortmund are planning to make Bellingham their "manager on the pitch" next season, according to Bild, and he is also being considered for the number 10 position. According to the report, Liverpool would have to pay more than £85 million to sign the 18-year-old. 

The skilled player is in for some exciting moments ahead. Fans would love to see him play for whichever team he ends up with.
