The Yellow-and-blacks are notorious for finding great footballers at a young age at some of the least known places, they had great success in their scouting with occasional flops – but Jude Bellingham proved that he is one of the biggest hits Borussia made. Last year Pep Guardiola spoke in amusement about the player: “I can’t believe he only 17 years old. Maybe he is a liar. He is so good!”The midfielder, who turned 19 on Wednesday, has three years left on his Dortmund contract and interest in him grew immensely.

I’m really looking forward to next season. I can’t wait for it to finally start. But yes, I’ll be here next season, and I’ll be ready.’ Bellingham told the German publication Ruhr Nachrichten.##NAJAVA_MECA_6477830##With Erling Haaland’s recent move from Dortmund to Manchester City, Bellingham has become the most valuable star in the Bundesliga, and it will take a lot of money to tempt the Bundesliga outfit into giving him up.Bellingham has scored 10 goals and made 18 assists for the German side across 89 appearances since moving from his boyhood club Birmingham City for 29 million euros in 2020.
