BVB’s Jude Bellingham remains a top priority for Manchester United in the transfer window

Jude Bellingham

Manchester United have made Jude Bellingham a priority midfield singing as they look to rebuild their squad under Eric ten Hag. The youngster has earlier snubbed a move to Old Trafford for Borussia Dortmund but the Red Devils feel they can now convince the Englishman to sign for them.

Manchester United have lost 3 of their midfielders in a free transfer this summer, and Eric ten Hag wants to bring new young blood to Old Trafford who can reshape the club and bring trophies. Hence, Jude Bellingham among others is a priority for Manchester United.

Moves for Kante and Rice difficult making Jude Bellingham an obvious choice for Manchester United

Manchester United have been linked to many midfielders this Summer. Some are N’golo Kante, Kalvin Philips and Declan Rice. However, according to The Athletic, Rice would cost United upwards of £100 million. While Philips is not tempted by the move to Leeds’ arch-rivals.

United’s board is also not sure about Kante given his injury record in recent seasons. Hence, a move for Jude Bellingham makes all the more sense. Bellingham is only 18 and already has 90 appearances for Borussia Dortmund.

The youngster is way more mature for his age and could be part of United’s new rebuild. He also comes in as a close-to-perfect replacement for Paul Pogba who left United on a free transfer this summer.
