Liverpool transfer target Jude Bellingham has sent a message to Reds skipper Jordan Henderson.
Bellingham commented on Henderson’s Instagram post following the ‘Jordan Henderson is Never Done’ documentary, presented by Nike Football, which was released on Saturday. The documentary tells the story of the Liverpool captain’s career through the ‘voices of those who know him best’.
Henderson posted: “Thank you to everyone who took part in this ‘Never Done’ series. What people had to say in it means a lot to me and I will continue to give them my best going forward. Great job by @lozcast and @glencowie in putting this together and also @nikefootball, who have supported me since day one. More special memories to be made!”

And Bellingham commented on the post and just said: “Legend”, which is likely to spike further discussions surrounding his future.
The Borussia Dortmund midfielder has been linked to a number of major European clubs including the Reds and the ECHO understands that Bellingham is a player Liverpool do admire. However, any possible move was always likely to come in 2023 because of the World Cup later this year and due to Erling Haaland's £51m switch from the Westfalenstadion to Manchester City earlier this summer. Dortmund are expected to be receptive to Bellingham's departure next year.
The former Birmingham City prodigy has won 15 caps for England where he has played alongside Henderson and will hope to have a big impact in Qatar later this year.
Liverpool are expected to be favourites for Bellingham’s signature next summer as they hold out to secure their preferred target. Despite clamour from fans and pundits to strengthen their midfield options during this summer, the Reds plan to stay patient in order to sign Bellingham.
