Jude Bellingham is on the agenda of Liverpool and Real Madrid. The English side are willing to go all out for him, but the Spaniards prefer to wait until the summer of 2023 to make a bid for his signature. In the meantime, Borussia Dortmund are demanding at least 100 million euros to let him leave.

Jude Bellingham remains one of the most sought-after players in the transfer market. The 18-year-old English midfielder is on Liverpool's agenda, one of the clubs most interested in signing him.

But the Reds are not the only ones after the Borussia Dortmund player, with whom he has a contract until mid-2025. Real Madrid are still looking at the young England international to strengthen their midfield.

The 'AS' newspaper highlights on the front page on Monday 27th June that the 'Merengues', who had initially put 90 million euros on the German player's table, could wait until the summer of 2023 to make a bid for his signing.

Just a few days ago, the 'Bild' newspaper reported that the Englishman is worth 100 million euros, a figure that is non-negotiable for the German club, who will not accept a single euro less than that amount to let their highly-rated player leave. 

Liverpool would be willing to offer that amount for the promising British player, a figure that, at the moment, Madrid are not prepared to pay. 'Los Blancos' prefer to wait until next year, when Bellingham will be 19 years old and will have the experience of the World Cup in Qatar.
