Jude Bellingham: Real Madrid and the England midfielder reach a 103 million euro agreement
The 19-year-old was one of England’s best players at the 2018 World Cup. He transferred from Birmingham City to Dortmund in July 2020.
Bellingham is in favor of the relocation and will undergo a medical exam soon.
The midfielder, who has drawn interest from some of the best teams in Europe, will sign a six-year contract.
The Spanish team has agreed to pay 103 million euros, with numerous further potential add-ons, Dortmund has revealed in a statement.
The deal might total 133.9 million euros (£115 million) if certain add-ons are met.
Bellingham, who is expected to become the third-most expensive adolescent in the world, caught the attention of Manchester City and Liverpool, among other teams.

Liverpool withdrew from the Bellingham signing process in April due to the associated costs. Jurgen Klopp, the manager of Liverpool, responded to a question about Bellingham at the time by equating talk of expensive transfers to a “child wanting a Ferrari for Christmas.”
