Borussia Dortmund have the upper hand in negotiations since there is no release clause

The teenager’s current contract, which only expires in 2025, has also been mentioned as having no release clause. In the end, the Bundesliga club has a significant edge in their quest to seek a record-breaking sum for the former Birmingham City prospect due to the absence of any release clause.

Bellingham’s situation puts the club in a stronger position than it was in the instance of Erling Haaland, who Dortmund was forced to let go for £51 million because of the player’s release clause. Edin Terzic’s team can refuse to move from a predetermined price for Bellingham who is undoubtedly the best young midfielder in Europe because Real Madrid is also in a battle for the youngster’s signature with a long list of elite teams, including Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Manchester United.

Therefore, only time will tell how hard Carlo Ancelotti’s team would try to sign Bellingham, given that they also have the talented Federico Valverde at their disposal.
