Erling Haaland and Liverpool star send messages to Jude Bellingham amid transfer links

Jude Bellingham has been sent some messages by some notable names as he continues to be linked with a move to Liverpool.

The Reds have been frequently credited with an interest in the Borussia Dortmund midfielder, and it remains to be seen whether or not the club will get a deal over the line. Interest in the player is likely to intensify after Bellingham’s involvement in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

England were knocked out of the competition by France, losing 2-1 in the quarter-final. Bellingham played the full match, and posted an emotional message on Instagram a day later.

“This one will be painful for a very long time,” Bellingham wrote. “The better team on the night went out, that’s football sometimes.

“Regardless, I’m so proud of the effort, fight and performance from my teammates over the course of the whole tournament.

“Thank you also to the fans for the love and support these past few weeks, stick with us even in this low moment as we use this experience to continue to grow as a team for future tournaments. Keep the faith, our time will come.”

Bellingham’s post has led to plenty of comments being made by his team-mates for club and country. One of them came from Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson.

The Reds skipper posted a short message featuring just emojis. He used a dizzy emoji followed by a heart emoji.

Another player who sent Bellingham a message is Manchester City striker Erling Haaland. The pair played together at Dortmund until the summer, and the forward simply wrote: “What a player.” in his comment.
