Liverpool have reportedly joined the race to sign Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham, and will rival Real Madrid for his signature in 2023.
The 18-year-old has been linked with a move back to England after impressing during his time in Germany, where he arrived in 2020, with Jurgen Klopp's side keen admirers of the midfielder.
Bellingham is currently under contract with Dortmund until 2025, and with striker Erling Braut Haaland a main target for most top European sides, the Bundesliga outfit are expected to retain the English international this summer.
According to talkSPORT, though, Liverpool will have to prepare to act quickly next year to secure the youngster's signature, as Real Madrid will also bid for Bellingham in one year's time.
It is believed that Bellingham has been valued at £100m, which is likely to increase by the end of next season, and he has been identified as a replacement for Luka Modric at the Bernabeu.
The former Birmingham City midfielder has netted 10 goals and provided 17 assists in 83 appearances during his career at Signal Iduna Park.
