Jude Bellingham 'available for £60m' and more Manchester United transfer rumours

Manchester United could potentially sign Borussia Dortmund and England midfielder Jude Bellingham for just £60million, according to reports.

As per the Daily Mail, Bellingham - who is widely expected to leave Dortmund in the summer - could depart the Bundesliga side in a cut-price deal, with reports suggesting that his contract contains a £60million release clause. Should the 19-year-old be available for that price, the interest in the player would only increase.

It is thought that United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester City are all pursuing the Englishman, who enjoyed a productive World Cup campaign in Qatar ahead of the Three Lions' quarter-final exit.

Bellingham has scored nine goals in all competitions for Dortmund so far this season, also registering three assists. He is under contract with the Bundesliga club until 2025.

Elsewhere, AS report that United are leading the race to sign Atletico Madrid superstar Joao Felix, with Arsenal also thought to be keen on the attacker.

The report claims that Felix can be signed on loan in January for a €9m (£8m) fee, with any potential suitors having to cover his wages in full. Despite arriving for a fee in excess of £100m, the Spanish side are open to allowing the player to depart given that he has fallen down the pecking order.

The 23-year-old, who has struggled to adapt to Diego Simeone's brand of football, enjoyed a strong World Cup campaign – scoring once and assisting twice. The Reds have been heavily linked with the attacker in recent months, despite the player recording just 33 goals in 129 appearances for Atletico.

Felix has made just nine starts in all competitions this season, but the attacker has registered three goals and three assists in five La Liga starts.
