Jude Bellingham 'remains Liverpool's top transfer target'

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham is reportedly still Liverpool's top transfer target despite agreeing a deal to sign Cody Gakpo.

On Monday, PSV Eindhoven confirmed that they had reached an agreement with Liverpool for the transfer of Gakpo, who had been heavily linked with Manchester United.

Although the Reds have moved quickly to sign the Netherlands international, according to the Daily Mail, Bellingham remains their number one transfer target.

While there is an expectation that Bellingham would command a fee in excess of £100m, the report claims that the 19-year-old has an unconfirmed £60m release clause in his contract.

Despite having a deal with Dortmund until June 2025, the Englishman is widely expected to leave the Bundesliga club next summer.

As well as attracting interest from Liverpool, the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City and Real Madrid are also vying for Bellingham's signature.
