The Daily Mail reports that Real Madrid is now officially in the race to sign Borussia Dortmund’s midfielder Jude Bellingham in the upcoming summer transfer window. The report suggests that Los Blancos are willing to go to great lengths to secure the services of Bellingham.
Media reports suggest that Real Madrid have been increasing their negotiations with Jude Bellingham and his representatives. The discussions are believed to be progressing to the point where all the important parties involved in the transfer have coordinated their positions.
According to reports, Jude Bellingham is to leave the German team at the end of the season. Despite Dortmund’s wish for him to continue for another year. Dortmund currently values him at €150 million. Meanwhile, Manchester City is currently considered to be leading the race for Bellingham’s signature. Given their professional relationship with the German team. Nonetheless, Real Madrid is said to have intensified talks with Bellingham and his representatives in an effort to acquire the young midfielder.
How much will Real Madrid pay for getting Jude Bellingham?
According to the Daily Telegraph, Real Madrid is willing to pay a guaranteed fee of €115 million for Jude Bellingham. But they are also preparing to go as high as €150 million with potential add-ons. However, these add-ons are expected to be quite challenging to achieve. Potentially including winning the UEFA Champions League and even the Ballon d’Or.
Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are two of Real Madrid’s most important midfielders and their futures could have an impact on Bellingham’s decision. If either of them were to leave the club, it could open up a spot for Bellingham in the midfield. On the other hand, if they both stay, Jude Bellingham may have to compete for playing time or wait for his opportunity. Ultimately, Bellingham will have to consider a variety of factors before making his decision. This includes the sporting project of the club, his potential role in the team, and his own personal ambitions.
It certainly seems that Real Madrid are very keen on acquiring Bellingham in the summer. They are willing to pay a significant sum to secure his services. However, much may depend on the futures of Kroos and Modric, as well as Bellingham’s own preferences in terms of a sporting project. It will be interesting to see how this develops over the coming months. Whether Real Madrid are ultimately successful in their pursuit of the highly-rated midfielder, only time will tell.
