Owen Hargreaves believes Jude Bellingham 'walks into any team in the world' as Liverpool set their sights on the midfielder for the summer transfer window.
Jurgen Klopp has made the England international his top target as the Reds look to rebuild a midfield that has struggled massively at times this season, but they will face huge competition from across Europe.
Bellingham is admired from the likes of Liverpool, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea as Hargreaves admitted the teenager would 'walk' into any of those sides.

Speaking on BT Sport before Bellingham took to the pitch at Stamford Bridge, former Bayern Munich midfielder Hargreaves spoke highly of the England teenager.
"Everybody loves Jude," Hargreaves said. "Honestly, he’s just such a diamond who walks into any team in the world - that includes even Barcelona and Real Madrid - so this is a huge stage, huge occasion for him.
"He gets better the bigger the game is, we saw that at the World Cup, so I’m looking forward to seeing him and looking forward to where he plays next year because we know Dortmund, they sell the biggest players."
