Deal starting to be struck for Bellingham, Madrid to announce him next week

Since losing to Manchester City in the Champions League, Real Madrid have started to get to work on compiling their squad for next season. Their main plan is to get a midfielder who can step in for Toni Kroos and Luka Modric in the near future.

Therefore, according to 'Marca', Madrid delegates travelled to Germany to meet with the Dortmund board and finish up the deal for Jude Bellingham.

The Spanish side are willing to go full hog financially to get the English winger on board.Their offer would be around €100m, plus add-ons and bonuses for varying reasons.

Madrid have managed to negotiate, therefore coming to an agreement with the German side for Bellingham. However, the move will only happen once the Bundesliga is over.

Therefore, the side from Valdebebas will have to wait another week to be able to finish up everything and, once and for all sign their main target,who they've supposedly got for 6 years.

Unless all goes pear-shaped at the last minute, Bellingham is set to become Real Madrid's star signing for next season. Once Borussia Dortmund get the Bundesliga trophy, the deal will just be down to the formalities of signing.
