Jude Bellingham remains Liverpool's number one transfer target despite the club moving quick on Monday to hijack Manchester United's deal for attacker Cody Gakpo.
Bellingham is widely expected to leave Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund in the summer, with a host of clubs interested in securing the English midfielder's services.
The 19-year-old could leave Germany for a cut-price deal with it believed that his contract at Dortmund contains an unconfirmed £60million release clause. A budget deal for one of football's brightest emerging talents.
Such a price could lead to Bellingham deciding his future from a bounty of suitors with Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Manchester City all pursuing the star and pushing their claims.
