Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham is one of the names on everyone's lips when considering who the best young player in world football is. (He came 4th on ESPN's 39 U21 list from April.)
Still only 19, Bellingham has made his mark in the German Bundesliga over the past two years since he made a €30 million transfer from Birmingham City in 2020. Now, Dortmund value his services at over €120m, but without a release clause in his contract (unlike Erling Haaland, who moved to Manchester City for €60m from Dortmund this summer), the sky is the limit for Bellingham.
