‘Scary’ Liverpool target’s brother may have just affirmed he’s Anfield bound; meetings held with Reds personnel in London – report
According to a report by Jacque Talbot at Football Transfers, Jobe Bellingham, the brother of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham, has hinted that his brother will join Liverpool during the upcoming summer transfer window.
It has been claimed that Liverpool representatives have already met with the teenager in London, and both the club officials and former players are confident that the transfer will go ahead.
During the BBC’s live commentary of the World Cup, Jermain Jenas referred to the England international player as “scary”. However, the player’s team, Borussia Dortmund, was eliminated from the Champions League after losing 2-0 to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
It should be noted that although the player’s family members seem to be convinced that Liverpool is the right destination for him, a deal has not yet been finalized. Nonetheless, this news can be seen as a positive sign for Liverpool.
In an interview with the Liverpool Echo, John Henry’s statement about FSG’s commitment to the club’s transfer market sustainability policy has raised some concerns.
However, in the past, there has been some flexibility in this policy for the right player, typically with the aid of player sales.
Liverpool fans will be hoping that the club will show some flexibility this summer in their pursuit of one of the world’s most talented midfielders.
The failure to sign a particular player has undoubtedly been a PR setback for Liverpool’s recruitment team, who appeared to have disregarded other options and pursued a high-risk approach.
However, given the severity of the current midfield crisis at Liverpool, it is clear that a more significant and decisive solution is needed.
In this context, signing Bellingham should be viewed as an absolute necessity, and something that both Jurgen Klopp and the new sporting director (whoever that may be) must prioritize.
