Liverpool want to sign €180m Real Madrid transfer target

Jude Bellingham has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer, but Liverpool are reportedly determined to sign the Borussia Dortmund midfielder.

According to The Mirror, Liverpool are willing to pay €180m to sign Bellingham, who is one of the most highly-rated young players in world football.

Bellingham has been in impressive form for Borussia Dortmund this season, scoring 10 goals and providing 15 assists in all competitions.

The 19-year-old has also impressed for England, making 15 appearances for the Three Lions.

Real Madrid are reportedly keen to sign Bellingham as a long-term replacement for Luka Modric.

However, Liverpool are also in need of midfield reinforcements, with Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara both in their thirties.

Bellingham would be a major coup for Liverpool, and he would be a key part of Jurgen Klopp's plans for the future.

The Reds are reportedly confident of signing Bellingham, despite Real Madrid's interest in the player.

If Liverpool can sign Bellingham, it would be a major statement of intent from the club.

The Reds are looking to build a squad capable of challenging for the Premier League title and the Champions League, and Bellingham would be a key part of that.

It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can beat Real Madrid to the signing of Bellingham, but the Reds are reportedly determined to land the Borussia Dortmund midfielder.
