Liverpool, Real Madrid target Bellingham 'summoned' by Borussia Dortmund for crunch transfer talks

Jude Bellingham could make a decision on his future THIS WEEK as he has been called in to meet with Borussia Dortmund directors.

Dortmund have 'summoned' Bellingham for showdown talks, with the midfielder set to make a decision on his future this week, says AS.

Liverpool and Real Madrid will be among several sides waiting with bated breath as Bellingham, his family and Dortmund officials come together to make a decision on the 19-year-old's future, said to be occurring before their January 6 mid-season trip to Marbella.

The midfielder looks set to become the most in-demand player this summer, his performances for England at the World Cup only strengthening the feeling that he will join one of Europe's elite clubs at the end of the season. The relationship between Bellingham and Dortmund is said to be open and honest, with the Bundesliga club near certain they will lose their star but wanting 100 per cent clarification.

Such is Dortmund's understanding of the situation, the report adds, that they have already set a price tag of at least €100million plus €40million add-ons. The German outfit are also said to have offered Bellingham a new deal earlier this year, with the reported release clause of €150million hinting at their likely demands.
