Both Manchester clubs join Liverpool in getting off the starting blocks to sign Bellingham

The summer transfer window is already a done deal for the top leagues in Europe where, after a summer packed with international football, numerous clubs waited until the last minute to pull off their transfer moves. However just because the window is shut until January does not necessarily mean the rumor mill won’t continue to turn.

The latest report from The Sun states that Premier League rivals Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool are already eagerly lining up their cross-sights on Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham who had added some fresh sparkle and spunk to the Champions League match for his Bundesliga side’s kick-off against Besiktas.

Bellingham, 18, has emerged as one of Europe’s most promising young talents since moving to the Bundesliga last year and the England international was named Player of the Match for Dortmund’s 2-1 Champions League win in midweek after scoring one goal and setting up the other.

Last week, the ever-reliable Fabrizio Romano noted in a report that Anfield was targeting the former Birmingham City player, and this has apparently also kicked off interest from Man City and Man United, who are now reportedly also keen to sign him.

Unfortunately for the trio of clubs, patience would need to be exercised as young Bellingham still has four years left on his contract with no release clause involved, which allows the Bundesliga club to dig their heels in and stand strong on their stance of not losing the midfielder.
