Liverpool continue to be linked with a move for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham.
Reports have circulated over the past 12 months claiming how the England international is a target for the Reds. Bellingham moved to Dortmund from Birmingham City in a £25million deal in 2020.
There have been fresh rumours suggesting that Dortmund have placed a £130m price tag on the player’s services for next summer. Now, a new report has claimed that Liverpool are stepping up their interest in Bellingham.

According to Marca, via Paisley Gates, Liverpool have made an offer to sign Bellingham, although it does not say whether this would be for January or for next summer. The report does not specify, either, how much the Reds have bid to sign the 19-year-old.
However, the report goes a step further by saying that Bellingham has received multiple offers from Premier League clubs. On top of that, it has also been claimed that the midfielder will reject all of them in favour of a move to Real Madrid.
It has been claimed that Bellingham has already decided that he wants to sign for the Spanish giants, and that he will turn down any offers from Liverpool or any other English club.
Despite this, the report concludes by claiming that Jurgen Klopp is very keen to sign Bellingham for Liverpool. It has also been reported that there is a “special insistence” from the Reds boss to bring the midfielder to Anfield in 2023.
